Dana, I strongly recommend that you wire your two pumps so that both may be
operated simultaneously. I turn on both pumps for take-0ff and Landings.
Should one pump fail, I would not need those precious seconds to recognize
what had happened to react correctly and get the fuel pressure back up in
time. So look upon it as insurance. Once at adequate altitude I turn one
pump off.

Subject: [FlyRotary] Fuel pump question.
Man am I ever going to expose my serious lack of electrical knowledge
here:-) I'm planning on using a single pole double throw switch to
activate
one or the other fuel pump, but not both. Is there ever any reason to
have
both pumps on at the same time??
