It is possible to mount the pumps in a RV tank using a stock
fuel pump / holder assembly from a Ford EFI car. Some Ford vehicles use an
in-tank mount that is 'L' shaped; ie, it can fit in the outside/end rib and make
the turn so the fuel pump is vertical.
Hi
Ken,
I had figured something
like this was possible, but there's no way you'll ever be able to replace one of
those without removing the tank, and that's a pretty major hassle until you
paint the plane, then it becomes something you want to avoid at all costs.
I don't see any way to do this without screwing up your paint.
Fortunately, if you buy a new pump, you'll probably never have to replace
it. Every decision is a compromise.
Cheers,
Rusty (may actually get
to fly this weekend)
