12 volts and disappearing petrol !

Further to my earlier posting (petrol disappears)

Oops, yes of course I got my maths wrong ! Obvious when I look at it now.TY for all replies, sarcastic and otherwise! Think I will try Richard's idea of an electric pump, but wondered about its location - IE should it be the carb side of the existing mechanical pump, or the tank side? Or...how about in-tandem as it were, using a "Y" connector at both ends of the pump inlet/outlets, this way surely the mechanical pump would not be affected at all by the leccy one?? TY again...Tim.

Use an electric one on the flow from the tank directly to the carb. Forget the mechanical one they are at best crap, and when hot cause vapur locks etc...

Let it go to your carb, and return to the tank continuously when on via a small 1 or 1.5 volt jet/drilling to keep fuel cool and prevent vapour locks and maintain constant even pressure. Better still add a regulator too.
