Cummins 6B’s don’t circulate near the amount of fuel as DDs, don’t have exact numbers, but demand iqs much lower.
The Cummins lift pumps are capable of doing their job, unless the tanks are extremely far away or far below the engines.
The generator has its own lift pump.
For safety’s sake, it’s not a great idea to push the fuel to the filters.
