Vehicles fitted with a generator require a fuel pump with a longer lever arm and taller pump body. Installing an alternator-type pump on a generator setup may cause misalignment or incorrect fuel pressure. This unit is ideal for classic restorations or maintaining factory-spec drivability in vintage air-cooled Volkswagens.
