Fuel Injection Conversion: SIMPLE Fuel Sending Unit Modification

  • Some people may call this method crazy, but that's okay! We are all about thinking outside the box and using what you have on this channel.
    We recently swapped from a 258 carbureted engine to a fuel injected 4L engine on our Jeep project, so we had to install an electric fuel pump. The traditional methods of doing this include either a custom fuel tank (talk about expensive!) or a frame mounted fuel pump.
    The frame mounted option wasn't viable because there was no place to mount it on the frame that would be lower than the fuel level, which would lead to the fuel pump overworking trying to pull the fuel out of the tank. This can significantly shorten the life of an electric fuel pump.
    Rather than cutting a huge hole in our fuel tank and making a custom sending unit, we decided to try modifying the factory fuel sending unit instead.
    In this video we walk you through the entire process of how we rebuilt the sending unit for the EFI conversion, and share the resources we used to get it done.
    If you enjoyed this video, you should check out how we reused a bunch of random exhaust here: • From SCRAP to Epic: Bu...

    Like reusing old parts? Check out what we did with a bunch of old exhaust: th-cam.com/video/u0DMb7zX9lA/w-d-xo.html

    May have just saved my ass for my LS swap. You have earned yourself a subscriber sir

    Awesome video brother. Thanks for sharing. Interesting video. Keep the content coming. Hope you and Amber enjoy your night. Much love and RESPECT

    Nice!!! Makes me want to try this out. Never been fond of modifying the tank.

      That was my thought as well. The biggest challenge was getting a sock that worked on the fuel pump

    Good stuff. I drilled my fuel filter on the tank out and made a an8 fit into it. I like how you did yours 👍👍

    • @PerpetualProjects

      Yeah this is a really old tank so I wanted something pre-pump to prevent trash from going through the pump

    Awesome, I'm doing the same for a quad project

    The only problem with that superglue is the gas is just going to eat it right off. I’ve learned that from experience.

    • @PerpetualProjects

      Yeah it was a really tight fit so I'm not really worried about the glue dissolving. I put it on for peace of mind for maneuvering it into the tank

    Looks good to me Sir . One step closer to finishing Piece of Jeep.

    Did the same thing with mine. Did you happen to use submersible fuel line? Guessing yours is since it came in kits for that purpose. My tank is still out and I’m tempted to replace the rubber line with fully submersible tubing.

    Was thinking of doing a similar modification on my build. Have you had any issue with fuel starvation at lower fuel levels? I was worried about that with my tank not having baffles. Great video

      To be honest we didn't drive it all that much. but the fuel supply shouldn't be much different than with the factory pickup.

    Gas melts super glue.

    • @PerpetualProjects

      Yes it does, but the glue was mostly for peace of mind for getting it all installed the sock fit very tight on the pump.
