Engineered without diaphragms or seals that commonly wear out, the solid-state design provides long service life, quiet operation, and low current consumption — about 1 amp at 12 volts. It accepts gasoline, diesel, biodiesel, E85 and blended alcohol fuels, plus common fuel additives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow much fuel can this pump move and at what pressure?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Facet FEP288SV delivers a maximum free-flow rate of 32 gallons per hour and typically provides about 15 gallons per hour at 2 psi.

The Facet FEP288SV pump kit suits hobbyists, restorers, and light-duty vehicle or small-engine applications that require a dependable, low-pressure fuel supply (typical use up to ~150 HP). It's ideal when low electrical draw, broad fuel compatibility (including E85), and a compact cube form factor are priorities. Choose this kit when you need an easy-to-install, maintenance-friendly pump for carbureted engines, auxiliary fuel systems, or retrofit projects where quiet, efficient fuel delivery matters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"product-faq-snippet\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: Is the Facet FEP288SV compatible with E85 fuel?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: Yes.
