Okay, Andrei sounds pretty convincing with his shits & giggles experiment. So I assume that you got these results by allowing the pump to fully prime from a lower height? How high can you have a dry pump and still have it prime? But then these fuel pumps double as zero-dimensional fuel storage devices. I've found that a used fuel pump can hold 2 or more gallons. Just when I think I shook all the fuel out, another gallon dumps in my lap. I put a thermometer in my fuel tank once after driving in hot weather and having the fuel pump make quite a racket. I think I measured 107 degrees F. I think I'll just install a permanent temp sensor in there just for its & iggles. Rick, yep, I'll look in the tank again and check the pickup screen. Another local owner has the same problem with a new noisy pump and swears that he will make a new fuel tank with the pump mounted differently before he trashes another new fuel pump by forcing it to pump too far up hill. (Yeah, this totally conflicts with what Andrei is saying.) We both have the same design ideas. It's just a matter of which of us gets around to building it first. But then Andrei is probably right and maybe both Tom & I have bad fuel pumps. Walt Yahoo!
