People have had good luck using this pump as it appears to be the only thing out there that is durable and powerfull enough to do the job. The next concern I had was in the notes it states: "For long term driving applications where continious run times exceed 30 minutes and fuel capacity is less then 10 gallons, Aeromotive recommends the installation of a pump voltage control module, Aeromotive p/n 16302."Īnyone know what that is all about? Is it applicable for our use? Is there a reliable way to add a fuel tap connection into the bottom of a plastic fuel tank? If so, instead of heating a pickup,I suppose I could stick an alluminum coil of coolant in the tank near the sump fuel tap. Since this is with the assumption of gasoline or alchohol use, I can only imagine that Veg. When using a pickup, you should maintain at least 1/2 tank of fuel in vehicle at all times, to avoid possible engine and/or fuel pump damage." Installing a high flow pickup instead of resevoir style sump may shorten the fuel pump life and cause driveability problems.

If you choose not to install a resevoir style sump, you must install a high flow capacity fuel pickup. The installation notes state: "If you are using a stock fuel tank, install a reservoir style sump in the bottom rear of the tank. After reading the installation notes on the A1000 I have some concerns. (They had all three in stock and price matched the web prices posted here /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/warmsmile.gif )Īnyway, for now I had planned on using a 1/2" or so heated pickup tube that I was going to build to use in a OEM plastic dakota fuel tank I had laying around (16 gallon).
I just picked up an Aeromotive A1000 (PN 11101), Aeromotive 100 Micron filter (PN 12304) to go before the pump, and a Mallory 4305M regulator from jegs.
