Dual fuel pumps in a 2g AWD

[asshanson]

I have a 96 Talon AWD, so the fuel sending unit is under the back seat, passenger side. This past weekend Halon and I were going to install dual 255 fuel pumps (I'm switching to e85 and 1600cc injectors), but we discovered the fuel sending unit is a bit different than on a 1g, so we decided to just install a single 255 for now.

The first picture is of the 1g assembly, taken from Halon's thread. The next two are the 2g version, you can see how there isn't a long metal tube to cut off and connect fuel hose to. Has anyone done this in a 2g without spending $$$ on a custom fabricated unit?

I thought about cutting off the end where the pump mounts and welding on a small metal tube to make it look like a 1g setup, think that would work?

My fuel gauge stopped working after the single 255 install, so I'll probably be taking this apart in the next week or two, hopefully by then I'll have a way to install the other pump.

look on link there is guys on there that have it done it to 2g's

I think Full Blown in Bloomington might make a drop in unit for dual pumps for the 2Gs, but it won't be cheap. The tank design of the 2G and Evo are a pain to deal with.

^ they do have them for 2g's they are over 500.00

Yea I saw those, that was my reference to $$$ custom units in the first post. I'll look around link for write-ups.

Why not find a piece of hose that is big enough to fit OVER that piece on top, run it to an appropriatly sized T. Then feed the two pumps into that? Curious to see how you gonna do this.

The evo one is similar, but the whole bottom section is plastic. Wondering how to do this on an evo next, possibly....

Use an AN bulkhead fitting, and just eliminate that socket part that the pump plugs into. As shown in my setup here

Also if you are planning on keeping the stock fuel lines, the Full Blown drop in unit has AN Fittings attached to it for running all new lines.

Sorry your gauge isn't working man. The only thing I can think of is that plastic assembly that was loose in there when we took it out, but we reattached it so I would have though it would be working better now. Maybe there's something we totally missed.

Let me know if you need a hand again.

Wow, $500 for a drop in pump holder for a 2G? I'm sure those are flying out the door. Like others have said, running AN lines and bulkhead fittings will cost you about $50 in parts, but last forever, and best of all, look cool in pictures.
