Spotlight customer reviews:
Customer Rating: Summary: It says 12" but it was probably measured by a man. Comment: I installed this pump level to the BOTTOM of my fuel tank, up front. It says to install within 12" of bottom HEIGHT. Doesn't mention distance from tank. I figured that it should be fine. Nope!! This thing has problems with being on a hill. If you have to park on the slightest incline be prepared to roll, push or winch to get pointed downhill so the pump primes itself. This also needs to be mounted on rubber feet because if it runs dry, from sitting on an incline, it literally sounds as though a tiny jackhammer is pounding on your vehicle. Trust me, it's loud and takes forever to prime itself, provided you're pointing downhill! Customer Rating: Summary: fuel pump Comment: This fuel pump worked in place of the existing fuel pump on my APU. It works great. Highly recommended! Customer Rating: Summary: Don't waste your time and money! It worked for 10 miles. - Comment: I bought this pump in August and installed on my car, it's a '72 model. I drove the car to the Expo and back -- almost 10 miles. I parked the car until October. The fuel pump would not work, this would have been the second time the pump was used. I returned the pump with the receipt to Auto Zone. They would not refund or exchange it. I was sure it was defective considering the little bit of use it had. I argued with the manager at Zone Zone and swore to never to any business with them again. I bought the same pump from O'Reily's and replaced the one I bought in August. I drove the car 4 miles that day and then parked it for 3 weeks. I went to move the car, and nothing, the second pump was out. Lucky for me it was within the 30 days this time. I got my money back from O'Reily's and replaced it with an Air-Tec, which has worked fine 5 times with the longest period of non use being Nov. 20 - Jan. 18.
Don't waste your money. You will be sorry if you buy this. Customer Rating: Summary: It does exactly what I wanted it to do Comment: I have an old farm truck that sits sometimes for a couple of weeks without being started, and the fuel drains back out of the carburetor bowl and lines. Then it requires a lot of cranking by the starter before the engine will start.
I bought this pump and wired it to a toggle switch so I could turn it on to preprime the line and bowl before trying to start the truck so as to save wear and tear on the starter and battery. Once started, this pump is turned off, and the engine-run pump handles the transfer of the fuel.
It was cheap, easy to install and works perfectly.
I am very satisfied with it.
