I dunno just curious. I am running a swirl pot setup and i wanted to turn the tank to pot pump on first, to prime the pot, manually; and then wire the other with the ignition switch. Is that stupid/necessary? any tips. I've never run a swirl pot before
thanks for any input!!
I had a carter lift pump to the pot and an inline Commodore pump to feed the engine.
The first time I started it up I primed the swirl pot by taking power off the in line pump. Once there was fuel in the swirl pot I reconnected the in line pump and started it up. Ok it didn't start, as I had the polarity reveresed on the on line pump but once swapped over it started up.
From then on I never had to turn enither pump on or off. The Carter was fed from the ignition switch and the in line was controlled by the ECU. This waay the Carter was always running.
so, just to clarify.. you have the carter fed by constant b+ through the ignition switch.. power is cut off when the ignition is shut off? ANd what is the significance of running the inline through the ecu?
thanks!!
