Re: How much amperage should twin fuel pumps pull?

So according to my link, a 255hp at 13.5V at a base pressure around 45psi, you'd expect about an 8A draw. If you have them wired in parallel, then I'd expect around 16A total draw.

Your pump is different, but still I don't think you should be popping a 40A fuse.
