Hi Greg,

I used Van's facet pump as a "boost" pump = after the tank=20 selector valve and it has worked fine for 300 hours. It does get the = fuel=20 flowing again after you have run the system dry (don't ask me how = I=20 know). Note: not all facet pumps are made the same, = they=20 have different pump pressure ratings and many have the 45 = deg=20 automobile flared fittings rather than the 37 deg flare used in=20 aircraft. So get the one from Van's or some other reptuable = aircraft=20 company.
