cold weather turbo starting, can you boost the fuel pump?

WKR · Jan 3, 2009

Anyone out there have a turbo with upgrade fuel pump that requires extra juice to get going. Mine is fine in -15c and up but anything under that the magneto is to cold to build the amperage needed. Can you boost the capacitor or fuel pump with a small battery pack so the fuel pump comes on right away? thanks.

i have the same issue in the cold, i generally just put the chrger on it if it has a hard time in the cold.

Boosting it from another battery isnt going to hurt anything

If you wire a switch between your fuel pump lead and coil lead you can use your coil to boost the fuel pump as a prime before starting. Contact product tester on here as Twisted Turbo is getting ready to market the kit. I have it on mine and it works good. Shain can fix you up
