Weldon Fuel Pumps (the new hot ticket)

We run the DB2025A and it works great. It's not quiet, but works like a charm.

I bought an old drag radial car in '04 that had a weldon pump on it. I ran the car ALOT from '05 til -'10. Traded the car to a friend and it still has the same pump on it now. That thing was/is flawless. If I buy another electric, Weldon will be getting my money.

Chris -- we have used Weldon pumps since day one on our TD and the Chevy II... loud as heck, but as the Weldon guys like to joke, that way you know it's working! Absolutely flawless performance, and the Weldon guys are great to work with.

When my daughter (frequent driver) got in the car the first time with that pump her comment was "is it always going to make that sound"?

Yeah ... I was warned that the pump is loud ... due to its tight tolerances and materials used. However I find the pump sound kinda cool .... it sounds like an airplane at cruising altitiude ... like a nice turbine sounding humm.

I am a weldon customer for life .... I suggest more do too.

I've had a Weldon for over 10 years now...VERY reliable. Just make sure you have a filter on the inlet...the tolerance on the vanes is very tight, and the smallest particles will cause failure of the coupler (but it's very easy to repair!).

Loud ! Hell Race Cars are loud !
I bought mine (DB2025A) 3 years ago- my other brand was leaking Intermittently. I set it up with the help from the Weldon Guy's and never looked back. The last thing I worry about is my Fuel System ! Not to sound like I'm plugging Weldon but if they're good enough for the Military they're good enough for me and even with a lifetime warranty.
