What Fuel control cell or fuel pump configuration was used after 95? I'm interested in getting am assembly to use on my EFI conversion. I see that Nautique Parts sells a retrofit kit that is made for the 94-95 GT-40, but I don't see anything that is made for later years.

Is that when PCM stopped using Ford based engines and used GM instead?

I've read a series of posts about finding different internal pumps for the FCC. Has a solid solution been found?   The fuel cooler I have that come off a OMC 5.0L has dual pumps and a fuel cooler, but I don't think it's a sophisticated as the PCM solution.

Thanks

1995 was the first year of the GT-40 and it didn't have a Fuel Control Cell that year. All the later years into the early 2000's did and there was no need for a retrofit kit on those.

It was about 2002 when the GT40 ended it's marine run.

Thanks guys.

Keno- I guess I misunderstood the ad on NP. I thought it was only for the 94-95 (or 95)

Gun--driver- Is that the submersible pump that goes inside the FCC? Thanks for the offer, but I don't need one now, as I'll probably get the whole kit if I decide to go that route.

Does the return line go back to the FCC rather than back to the tank? Is that the way they avoid pressurized fuel going through the bilge?

The fuel cooler that was on the OMC 5.0 used raw water to cool the return fuel. I just don't think it was as advantageous in avoiding getting air in the system.

You asked about a ‘95 your mixing the two. The ‘95 had what I posted some ‘96 and on had the fuel cell’s. I say some because there were some early ‘96 models that still used the ‘95 version I guess using up stock.
The ‘95 version pumps are not the submerable style as were the later fuel cell style. It would be the cheaper way to go if you are making you’re own EFI as the retro fit kits are pretty expensive.
In the ‘95 version the fuel returns to the tank.

Hi Gun-driver,
Do you think that first Carter pump that you listed, that's rated at 9 psi, will work in a carburetor application with a regulator to step it down to 5 or 6 psi?

Hey Gun Driver,
If you still have these I might be interested in them. Let me know.
