Novice question.
I would like to install a Walbro FRB13 (6-8psi, 43gph)
fuel pump on my
Yanmar 2GMf. I intend to also put a timer in the circuit to circulate the
fuel daily for 6-8 hrs to polish and keep the
fuel clean when on
shore power and run continuously when the
engine is running.
Any reason I can't just hook it between the primary filter (racor 120AS or possibly 500 FG) and the mechanical
lift pump with a bypass/check valve line and without disconnnecting the mechanical
pump? I.e., Is there a problem with
head pressure to the mechanical pump and is there an unanticipated consequence if the mechanical pump fails in this circuit?
Thanks
