has any body used an electric winshield washer pump for slide lube. I wonder if it pumps enough or may be too much. Any help would be good . Thanks
An electric windshield washer will work, but depending on what size lines you run, you will need to regulate the flow depending on what you are doing with the sled.....drag racing or oval racing. The main thing is, you are going to have to test to make sure you are getting enough lube for the amount of time you need it.
I use a Mikuni fuel pump luber and with Mikuni pilot jets in the lines just before the slides I can get 3-7 laps depending on what size jets I use. If I were to use it for drags, I would take the jets right out. I also have a shut off on the luber system mounted on the dash so I can turn it on just before the start of a race, no sense sitting there dumping 3/4 of your lube before starting the race.
A few pics of my set up, simple, yet does the job....
BTW, this set up is on a '79 Exciter that I deleted the oil injection on, the oil tank is now my lube tank.
