i am having problems getting the manual fuel pump on my 1985 dodge 360 truck to pump fuel. i was wondering what it will take to convert it over to run on a electric fuel pump. will i need to put in a fuel regulator or can i just hook the pump up to the carb directly.

the mechanical setup is simple; just the fact you put electric pump in may not solve it; got a pinhole in the line? plugged up filter sock? or like my 78 D 300 had the pickup in teh sender was actually rsuted off; wouldnt opick up fuel below 1/2 a tank.

Well i know i am getting fuel to the pump. There is nothing blocking the line. And i just put a new manual pump on it and i still cant get fuel. If i put in a electric pump will i need to add a fuel regulator or can i go from the pump threw a filter to the carb?
