Default Notice the pickup and the small output. Sorry for the terrible camera phone pics.

Default That's the one!

Congratulations on getting one over here!
We'll all be anxious to hear the result-- should be a 'lock' that this will resolve your '7 Gallons and Out' fuel problem.

All the research and Bentley confirm your theory that the small output is the key... that little bit of flow should power all three scavenge pick-ups, keeping the sump full and getting fuel delivery from the full tank capacity.

Let us know how it goes.

Default I placed an order on Sunday with the outfit in Poland. Cost was ~ $85

shipped to the EU. I'll post pix when it arrives courtesy of the mystery re-shipper.
