Overall Assessment

Customers praised the 6V Positive Ground Fuel Pump for being unique, high-quality, and easy to install. The fuel pump stood out for its adaptable mounting positions and capability to work as a positive or negative ground. Buyers also appreciated the inclusion of quality mounting accessories that facilitated installation. Many recommended it as a reliable replacement for old fuel pumps, and particularly highlighted its excellent service in car restoration. Some customers had to improvise with the 3/8 fittings as most 6 volt vehicles use 5/16 fuel lines. Nonetheless, the pump works seamlessly once installed and customers might buy it again. Overall, superior quality and performance distinguished our product from competitors.

I used this on a friends 1940 Buick that already had the same pump but was getting noisy. It was a direct replacement using the same fuel lines, mounting bracket and electrical connections.

I restore a lot of cars and work with a lot of suppliers. Sometimes I need to improvise to replace parts that simply are not obtainable. I can say, without any reservations, that Speedway is one of the best in the business. They actually work at making sure your taken care of. Not the case with a lot of suppliers. I have purchased other products from Speedway. This fuel pump is top quality, like everything else they sell.
