Walter you asked:
"I'm still trying to find out how to keep my fuel pump quiet after
it gets hot."
Your noise problem may be due to the screen-door spring you installed in the
fuel suction hose. Fuel under high pressure may be cavitating as it passes
the spring coils the resulting bubbles will increase pump noise.
Part of the design parameters for the fuel pump mounting system is for sound
isolation. Any mechanical connection between the pump and adjoining
components will amplify pump noise. Noise transmission will also be
amplified if the upper pump hoses are in contact with the fiberglass body.
You asked:
"Many people have recommended installing an air dam between the tank
& the fans. Can anyone supply photos or dimensional drawings for this?"
Contact me directly for specifications and pictures of this item.
