EMPI 12V Electric Fuel Pump | VW Type 1/2/3 Carbureted | 1.5–4.0 PSI Solid-State (41-2510-8)

EMPI 12V Electric Fuel Pump — Solid-State, 1.5–4.0 PSI | VW Carbureted Builds (41-2510-8)

The EMPI 41-2510-8 is a universal 12-volt electric fuel pump with solid-state circuitry, sized for stock-carburetor applications in the 1.5 to 4.0 PSI range. It ships boxed with the inline fittings and hose clamps needed for a basic carb-side install, and uses a heavy-duty metal case.

It is a common choice for VW carburetor builds where the mechanical pump has been removed — engine swaps, performance carb conversions, and race builds.
