A two-stage fuel delivery system for an internal combustion engine that includes a first stage pump having a first pump chamber with an inlet coupled to a fuel source, an outlet and a diaphragm responsive to pressure pulsations from the engine crankcase for reciprocation within the chamber. A second stage pump includes a second pump chamber having an inlet coupled to the outlet of the first chamber, an outlet for delivering fuel under pressure to engine fuel injectors or the like, a permanent magnet for mounting on the flywheel of the engine for rotation in synchronism with operation of the engine, and a diaphragm in the second chamber operatively coupled to the magnet for reciprocation with the second chamber responsive to rotation of the magnet to pump fuel from the inlet to the outlet of the second chamber. The two-stage pump achieves fuel delivery pressures on the order of 25 to 30 psi or more employing energy from reciprocation of the engine and without requiring control electronics or electrical energy input.
