do it as well as you can,but learn to do it better
well I sorted the wiring this morning .... had a bit of a senior moment when I put the float switch back in last night - the wrong way up - I blame Simon's phone call .... so although I'd actually got power at the loom connector supplying it (the original feed), it would not run .... 'til I traced the new loom back to the switch - took it back out - and realised my 'error'
whilst I'd got all me wiring gear out i thought I'd replace the rear facing roof top lights with the new LEDs I've had sat for ages ...
they're 'kin bright, even in daylight
With that done, I thought i'd try the pump out, after tidying everything away ......
she was about 1/3rd full, so in need of about 160 litres ...... bloody hell does that pump flow fuel at a hell of a rate .... once i'd gotten it wet..
self priming, according to the paperwork for it, but was new and 'dry', 'til I decanted what it HAD managed to suck up half the pick up line .... then it was away
did not take long at all and kept a very careful eye on the speed at which it rose up the tank.
As Stu said ..... the froth could've been annoying ... but stopped it a few inches short of 'full', let it settle a while and went again ... didn't dare let the autostop dictate the stop point ..... needs a second pair of eyes for that .... or a remote switch button, on a wander lead, one could knock the pump off with, whilst watching the filler port
would certainly be a good idea
Quickest fill she's ever had .... love it
couldn't resist one of these for two quid ..... came across 'em on Ebay the other week .... just for the craic
every duck should sport one
