Ok, now that spring is finally here in MN time to tackle some projects.
So Ive read many of the threads here on the topic and conclude I want to go with Elec Pump on the Aux
Whats the right pump and most straighforward wiring plan. I am not the only driver of the coach so I need to plan/think for others as well
For location, is it best to put filter between the selector and the pump or perhap put two filters in front of the selector or lastly put the filter after he pump and remove the carb filter. Sounds like there isnt a lot of problems with plugged filters so I presume all are fine, just thinking mechanically about the spacing between the components and creating the most relaible set-up.
I do appear to have a bad sender in the Aux as it pegs to full when switched and also when Full-Full on the tanks and downhill I get a good flow of fuel spilling so I pesume the seals at the sender or senders are bad in some manner. Hoses look to have been updated and feel fine when reaching up and exploring
I think I will go at those through the floor in lieu of dropping the tanks as I have a bare floor an will make plates for later access
It will set for a few weeks at atime, so being able to prime ita little will be helpful. Is there a issue with running it for an extended time period on Aux with this setup ? I ask since I need to think of the others who may be drivng the rig. Perhaps replace the mechanical pump at same time, I do not know the agef that one.
Probbably need to consider the crossover blockoff mod as well. I am pulling heads to clean up an replace the leaking head gaskets and tis might be a good time to address....thouhts
thanks
