You don't slip up often, we mortals need to grab onto any small bone thrown our way....lol.
If you are talking about the fuel pump topic, it appears I did in fact mess up in stating we have 2 pickup points in the tank. Not sure why I said that. It would probably be more accurate to say we have an additional pump that pumps back and forth between sides (this one reverses direction when you fill up) but really only have one main pump and pickup point. Was that it?

Correct...there is only one pump. There is actually a jet pump too....the venturi effect of the fuel flow from the main tank supply drains the fuel from the aux tank into the main tank. So while you were correct in saying each tank had a pump, I knew that you meant two 12v pumps when you posted about two pumps....

I realise I've opened myself right up here, I'll wait now for you to pick me up on some ****-up.....

Cheers,
Gomez.
