I installed an electric pump as a primer, bleed assist/emergency pump 7 years ago. I located it after the tank(s) outlet but before the fuel line where it splits to the filters for the generator and engine. Priming, bleeding the system(s) or dealing with air leaks is easy. I didn't have a 3 way valve at the time so I used two ball valves. When the pump is off, it is out of the loop. I've ran the pump for about 16 hours one time when I had an air leak. I wasn't worried about locating it before the filters since it is/was not installed to replace the mechanical lift pump plus one pump can run the engine or generator. I looked for a part number but couldn't find it. And please no grief about the crappy hose clamp in the lower left.
