I just put my fuel pump back in and had some questions about the S R and D on it. I understand that the S, is the line from the tank. the R is return from the carbs, and the D is Damper, however, is the D the line that fuel runs through to the carbs? Its the only remaining option i have for lines, just wanted to make sure?

Unless you're speaking of a 70-71 911 T pump, the pump you have CANNOT SAFELY BE USED WITH CARBS. Even regulated down from over 40 PSI to 3, it's just not safe. Get a nice rotary pump made for carbs, one that you don't have to use any regulator. Yes, S is "suction", from the tank, R is "return, teeing in with the return line from the fuel pressure regulator and on to the tank, and D is "druck", or "pressure" in German. If someone tells you it's OK to use the stock D-jet FI pump with carbs, they're fulla crap. But then, what do they care, it's not THEIR car that burns to the ground .................. The Cap'n
