Ernest,
...snipped
We're not talking about anything that complicated. We're talking about
a single wire going from the power supply to a single pump at the back
of the plane. If the switch breaks, the pump stops. If the wire burns,
the pump stops. If the fuse blows, the pump stops. If the pump stops,
the fuel stops. An electrical fire won't have you looking for alternate
ways to shut off the fuel; though, it may have you looking for ways to
get it running again 8*)

you are probably right.
BUT, I got that experience over a rather scarcly inhabited rainforest area.
I am a" burned child":)) I will go for that mechanical device.
For me it is a little like the EWP, I want to see it work. I want to see it
work a LOT! :))
I will go with the " proof me wrong" - concept. In this case it just has to
be built and used often and long enough and I'll believe it.
At the rate at which I get closer to my airplane building dreams, it won't
be no problem - by then there is no more fossil fuel engines except in
museums :((
