As I was leaving Bean Station on a Sunday afternoon a few years ago, I came up one of our GMCers whose coach died climbing the hill up over the mountain on 25E. His mechanical fuel pump quit. I hooked onto him with my Blazer and towed him the rest of the way up the hill (4 lane divided highway) and then turned round and towed him back to BS. We were able to find a the correct replacement pump in stock at a NAPA auto parts store and in a couple of hours total time he was on his way again. I guess they fail once every 30 years or so.

Try that with a Mr. Gasket or even a Carter P4070 on a Sunday afternoon.

If total electric is your thing, then I like Ken H's installation. He has 2 P4070's (one for each tank). If his electric pump fails then he can switch tanks and pumps to keep going.
