I need to find a 12 volt Facet Fuel pump for my 10hp two stroke twin Stuart Tuner as the existing one works but is very noisy. Do you have any suggestions as to where i can locate one. |

I saw them listed just last week and they were so expencive i think you would be better off getting a cheaper brand.They were $100.A smaller volume pump should supply a 10hp easy. |

I assume we are talking about a electric fuel pump. There are some really good ones available nowdays .........my only experience with them was the old SU as used on a lot of early British cars. Obviously you are not using a gravity system .Unusual to be running a Stuart Turner with an electric fuel pump as most of these engines seem to be in '' Old Wooden Boats'' Tell us more !!! |

Hi Peter, My boat is an old wooden clinker and it had the 12 volt pump connected to the battery when i bought the boat. With the pump off the engine will not run. It makes a very loud clicking noise that i want to get rid of so i hope repalcing the pump will do the trick ! |
