The return from the mechanical goes back into the tank (as it should). The current mechanical has three hoses going to it at the moment. In, out and return. I was going to put a Y piece in place of the mechanical pump (plate the hole in the head) and make the return section of the Y piece smaller (like it should be, as the return hose/piping is smaller).

The facet pump is one of those "tick, tick, tick" pumps pretty sure they are designed for carby usage, was in a 2L carby Rodeo (aftermarket pump).

The tank is not too bad, fuel in Townsville can be the problem, I would be pulling the tank out pretty often.

Might remove some of the under fueling issues (carby has had the float done properly etc) and maybe a little bit more revy and remove some noise from the head.

Where could I get a Y piece from. Get it fabricated to the right hose size or see Rice Barn (auto barn) or super cheap. Will probably hunt around the performance shops and auto shops in Townsville (about 6 places maybe).

thanks
