Walbro 255 in tank
Walbro 255 in tank
I kind of want to keep my intank pump setup. I am thinking of putting a walbro255 in there. Only thing is i don't see one that puts out less then 50 psi. I have a mallory 4309 do you guys think this setup will work? Anyone running this setup?

I thought that the regulator determines the pressure. I recently installed a TRE pump. I know TRE had a high pressure, and regular 255 lph.
I wouldn't recommend TRE, it doesn't come with the o ring seal for the tank, and I had to cut the base of the holder and open it to get the strainer on.
It would've been nice to know.

Come on anyone?? Will the 3 port mallory safely bleed down 50 psi and run a constant 7psi. I really need to move on this im begging to look at external pumps i really dont want to go that way but its starting to look like the only way to feed a high Hp engine.

Yes, the reg can handle that.
Without resistance, the pump puts out zero psi. The 4309 produces pressure by restricting the return flow to the tank.
