I have an electric fuel pump on my 84 Allegro...and an extra one! I do not use the mechanical one at all. I will say that at first I had an issue after it sits, with it losing prime. If that happens, I leave the key at the "on" position for a minute or so and it self primes. I read some discussion about mounting the pump lower than the fuel tank to prevent that, but for now it works fine.
Electric pump mounted on the frame rail on the right side?
That's where mine was. I can see someone removed it. The previous owner had a new one in storage but it was ancient and didn't work. I got a new Airtex pump.
EDIT: When you say you don't use the mechanical one at all, is it removed? I'd like to go that route. Can you see the make/model of your electric pump?
