Steve,

I may have misunderstood you comment about limited lift. Why not install the
pump close to the tank so that the vertical suction run (lift) is as short
as possible? The pump will have lots of head to deliver to the engine.

I'm preparing to install a lift pump in series with my engine pump to
assist
in priming both the engine and the generator after I change filters.
Unfortunately the pump I purchased (AC) can only lift 1 ft., according to
the specs. Tha't ridiculous IMHO... My tanks are all down in the keels and
the lift for my service/day tank would be about 30 inches when the tank is
low. Sorry, didn't mean to bring my problems into your post.
