Sweet. I can probably hook up some sort of nice shut off valve to that filter head too.
If I were relying solely on an electric pump, I would install TWO of them, plumbed such that I could operate off of either pump by simply rotating a valve and flipping a switch.
What about one single gauge of the type referred to as a "differential pressure gauge" (measures the difference in pressure between two lines, rather than a single line vs. atmospheric pressure). I know where to get and industrial surplus one that measures zero to 2 inches of water column pressure difference-- but I don't know what level of pressure drop across the filter would be OK, so can't tell whether such a gauge would work. Input appreciated.
My system, from tank(s) to injector-pump, is first the GOLDENROD, then a LUCAS glass-bowl water-seperating sediment bowl, a DE-BUG magnetic organism-killing unit, the simple plastic inline filter(s), the lift-pump(s), and then the main FLEETGUARD water-seperating fuel-filter with integral drain (the drain-**** is made onto the filter canister).
