Re: Return Line Question/Issue

Now it is flush. The return line is still solid as a rock.


Can I use this and not have any negative effects? I would think the only issue would be hearing the gas returning into the tank?
FWIW, I'm running an external pump, so I don't have an internal tubes or anything for the return...its just a fitting at the top of my tank that pee's the returned fuel back into the tank.

You won't starve the pump as long as the pickup tube itself is still fine (and you have it at the lowest point)
