As you say. Me I like redundancy when I can get it.

You have to remember that the polishing pump is drawing at 20 - 30 times the
rate of the normal fuel pump. *That makes it much more effective at sucking
stuff up out of the bottom of the tank. *With my retrofitted system, both
engine and polishing flow are drawn through the same suction. *I actually
can't draw a tank quite as low with the polishing system running as I can
with just the engine drawing because it sucks air down about an inch and
into the intake.

Roger I do understand that and i work in an industry where fuel
polishing is SOP because we are out in it all the time. i made the
suggestion because the redundancy to me is paramount and i never ever
trust one system when i can have a backup. I am in no way knocking
your system
