Fuel system set up
 

I`m going to put my big boy pants on this winter and put together a real fuel system with a return to the tank. I kinda know what I~M going to do but any pics/ advice on the set up/ mounting would help.

...11 or 15 psi pump?
Fuel log or put a regulator inline with my current set up?
What is a good reliable regulator?
I have two pickup per tank so I will use one for the return.

This is current deal:

-10an going from tank all the way to the Y

dan,a regulator on the return line works good and stops pressure creep.i got my fuel logs from hardin marine,id post a link but you know that i,m not that computer savvy.if you set it up with the reg on the return side go with the higher pressure pump.joe b is removing his aeromotive a1000 pumps and i think you could buy them for a fair price if you wanted to go that route.

Mike, what do you mean by higher pressure? If I recall, Dan has carb engines so is there a limit on fuel pressure before you have issues?

You don't want to use a pick-up for a return.

if you use a regulator on the return line the incoming pressure is not an issue as you adjust it to about 7.5 lbs.the more incoming pressure the more you return.

need more info on your setup

Mike, so I could use a regulator without the return line port and just plumb it on the way back to the tank.. I like that. Text me some pics I`ll take care of the rest computer man .:drool1:
Brown Baha, its a threaded bung , I will not use the pickup, good tip.

I only say that because with my infinite wisdom I did that one time not knowing the tank had two pick-ups. It took some fooling around to figure out the second bung had a straw on it.

I've noticed you're pretty limited if you stick with marine approved regulators. Is everyone using approved regs or do you feel non marine is ok to use?

if you want to come by i will show you how i did mine,it is a nice looking clean install.
