How many of you are using gear pumps instead of diaphragm types and what filter element (micron) sizes are you using?

Ok, since I haven't seen an answer to this noisy-pump issue....
Considering how loud even rotary pumps are in a car with most or all of the sound deadening removed, I'd bet the pump is just fine. Every one of the diaphragm pumps I've used (some in fuel applications) is the same way. I'd run it and listen for anything that changes. If I'm right about that car's usage you aren't running it more than two hours at a time, which is the Tilton time limit they state as the outside (per a Tilton vendor I talked to while deciding on a pump). On that point. If anyone can point to documentation about that I'd like to actually see it in writing. Preferably tied to operating-temperature limits. Have you learned anything different? |
