[DML] Re: Fuel Accumulator

["David Teitelbaum" <jtrealty@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

More likely they employ TWO fuel pumps. One in the tank (or very
nearby) which is called the "Transfer Pump" and another to boost the
pressure up to full line pressure. The system won't work without both
pumps running. Are you proposing we trade the accumulator for a second
fuel pump? The system we have is just fine till the parts get old and
fail. A new accumulator will probably last another 20 years. Will a
fuel pump?
