Sump with stock pump

[bboteler]

Anybody installed a sump behind the stock pump...maybe some pictures or a write up??

I had done this a long time ago, it was a slick setup. I used 1/2" line from the sump plumbed to a quick connect fitting and connected right to the pump like stock.

No pictures though sorry!

Thats my plan, just wanted to see someones handywork before I go hacking mine. what did you do with the hoses and all on the top of the tank?

you just gotta plug the factory suction line is all.

Well I removed all the factory lines now, but at the time, I just undid the feed from the tank off the pump and used an -an hardline cap.

Yup that's the best way to do it i think Greg...that's what i did to mine.

I'm looking to keep my 175's happy as inexpensively as possible. Stock nozzles so they aren't screaming for fuel but on a hard WOT run I can get into the 50's...figure this can be the beginning of the fuel system upgrades that I know will benefit and future upgrades.

I did this to help my stock pump last with 190/75s for a while, and instead of dropping from 60 to 48 psi, it dropped from 60 to 55 psi on a hard run on fuell fuel. It helped a good deal.
