Hello,
I'm getting ready to replace all my original fuel line to the ethanol resistent fuel fine.
I would like to simplify the design and go from the tanks to a coupler, single line outside the frame to a hard mount fuel filter, to a hard mount electric fuel pump with a bypass hose(as close to the tanks as I can get), to a long run to the mechanical engine fuel pump. The fuel selector switch would be used to turn on the electric fuel pump, if needed.
My question is, by eliminating the tank selector switch would this cause any future problems or issues? I am one of those guys who stops for fuel every 200 to 250 miles anyways.
Thanks, Scott.
