RE: [DML] Re: Fuel Pump Noise (Moving the Pump)




Tom, Volvo mounted the pump away from the tank on a plate against the frame
and had a primer pump in the tank. Now you got 2 problems instead of one.

Hi all

I'm not sure if I can agree completely with this. I mean, if you mount the
pump 'just anywhere' it might take a long time for it to prime if it starts
dry. Long enough to ruin the pump. So, I would keep it close to the tank.
One thing is for sure - the pump DOES NOT need to be mounted inside the
tank. I have seen identical pumps mounted on top of the fuel tank that
lasted for many many miles (on different cars) without any pump inside the
tank.
