    NEW DW 400 IN-TANK PUMP!

    An easy solution to run a single big pump with the stock lines and stay at 45 psi base is to use a hobbs switch and relay to cut in a voltage drop to the pump via a resistor (say 1/2 or 1 ohm, 50 watt) during low fuel needs, then switch in nominal pump voltage during boost.

    Stock Fan vs Dual Electric Fans...with CFM #'s
