Which external electric pump?

I did read your link you attached. It does say to run a return. No need to unsubscribe as your info is accurate. Just some people do things differently and have good luck or no issues.


Turns out my inline fuse blew. I didn't try to tinker on the side of the highway this morning. Kept that for the garage where some bozo won't hit me while staring at his/her cellphone. I appreciate the help. I will be tearing into it to see why it blew. This winter I hope to swap to a fuel cell and replumb all the hardline and wiring. There is always a better way to do something after you have done it wrong.

that wasn't directed at you bud, just my reaction to a typical one sentence warrior jumping in with an apples to oranges comparison, that completely steers someone in the wrong direction. far too often people jump in to just harp on someone else's post, without providing any realistic or good info. glad you found a fuse is your issue. No matter what someone tells you, the fuel gets hotter in a dead head system, and the fuel pump works harder in a dead head system. thats a fact.period. adding a return will cut down on both of those things, despite the fact that someone with a pump that runs for minutes at a time..has had one working for years.

let me see if i remember JR High math class...

heat + electric =bad
hard working pump + cavitation = less longevity

return line = more longevity.

more longevity = good

haha :cheers: cheers mate
