Ok i have a fuel pump if i were to just hook it up with the stock carb with no other mods would it do anything bad? im just itching to use it lolz

it's not gonna give you any performance gains, save it til you build the engine to the point you will need it..

If ur tank is above the carb no point to use it if it is far away and lower from the carb go for it!

sounds like a plan lol

Yeah actually it won't hurt the ENGINE so much as it very very well might cause the engine to flood.. If a carburetor is setup to be gravity fed, the needle seat will be made to work that way.. If a carb is setup to run a fuel pump, they will have seats made to handle a fuel pump.. Running a fuel pump on a standard small engine carb will usually cause float issues.. :doah:

It's like 125 said.. If the carb is being fed fine with the gravity feed system, stick with it and wait to start wearing out your fuel pump until ya have something worth putting miles on it for. :thumbsup:
