[urq] FW: More Weird UrQ Behavior - fuel starvation

[Mike Del Tergo]

Understood, but as the UrQ Tank is one of the easiest in autodom to remove, why not take it out and graft a larger out flow tube on it?

But the feed to the pump from the fuel tank is too small at 3/8". The new canister would have a larger outlet to feed the pump. Since all of the return flow goes to the small canister the fuel tank would only need to replace the fuel that the engine consumed which the 3/8" pipe could handle easily. As stock the 3/8" feed must supply not only the fuel that the engine uses, but also all of the fuel that the return line dumped back into the tank.

I'd think there would need to be more to it?  Ben already has a 23 gallon "canister" just inches from the pump?!
