Well, we have the Track Dog set up that way. Just run a line from the tank to the Pierburg - although you might have to take it from the bottom of the tank. Or just put a good factory pump in there. If I want more fuel pressure or flow out of one of my own cars, I'll be adding a Pierburg to the factory pump and staying away from aftermarket in-tank pumps. That's my own personal opinion and not that of my employer, who has pointed out to me that he has Walbros on two of his own cars :)

I also have a Pierburg on the car. How do you use the Pierburg external pump without a working in tank pump??

They have a failure rate high enough that it doesn't surprise me any more when I hear of one. I've also heard of multiple failures for the same individual. Pierburgs, on the other hand, are pretty much bombproof.

My Walbro has been fine since adding it back in, oh...whenever it was that I upgraded to FM II. When was that... 2002 or 2003 or so? ________________________________ Looking for a car that's sporty, fun and fits in your budget?
