Imogene

Yea.. Hopefully it won't fry or drown, its up high on the firewall in the corner.. I really liked the test. Went from 3/4 to full on the main. Im trying to figure out how to adjust pump run time. My final test Jsta will be to run it for 3 hours straight...climbing a mtn pass.. dry.. see if it...

System install finished. The indicator and the electronics module are in the engine compartment. As we all know, when on 4wd outings, there is always many stop and watch opportunities. My thoughts are if I need to move fuel into the main from the aux, it can be done during a stop and watch. Turn...

I have to replace the connector for the sender since the ones they sent are different and dont go together. I always liked the weatherpacks..I ordered one but now I need to figure out hookup.. its a 50 50 shot since its just 4 wires total. Hellivue includes a hookup from Peel. But, it doesn't...

Alright trail leader on upcoming run, 7 nights out in the rockies advised to bring fuel cans. So I got in there and hooked it all up today. Ill get to testing over the next few days and take some pics of the final and update the thread. I did find a loose clamp very quickly when I filled it.

Always been one of my character defects. Overthinking, mountain out of a mole hill, pole vault to jump over a pea. A result of 40 years fixing airplanes. I will throttle down based on your suggestions and go easier. Thanks..

Update: I sent an email to Peel Electronics, thats the folks that manufacture the CP-440, which is the controller, tiny control head and associated harnes. See Q & A below. My question was, in short, if I can wire the entire system to a switched power source and run with the system powered...

LOL,,, good one... Im taking it all back off and putting it up for sale.

EDIT: Speaking to the Hellivue guy via email, the unintended movement of fuel is a natural occurance and to be expected, the control box is required as it has the auto shut off feature for the pump so it doesnt cook itself. Do I have to run with the thing on all the time even going to the...

I I have a 9.5" fast fill line there, the 2 nipples take up probably 4" so that leaves me about 5" to get the thing in if I need it. Im a bit leery of what your telling me and I DO appreciate it, especially from you, a veteran of this mod. The fast fill at the top of the tank in the front...

West Marine has one.. Before I start modifying the modification, I check with Hellivue...

Got it yea, I get that. I have a dedicated hole on the firewall for new wires going in and out. The shifter surround is after market 3d printed and has room for it. What I have thought about doing is control the pump with the switchpro and have an indicator in the shifter surround. The sender...

Pump in, not wired yet. 7 pin trailer plug in but its in a spot outside the rail. Not really happy with it there. Wheel well liner in. For my next trick. Hellivue Designs includes a minature qty ind/pwr switch. I dont want to pop another hole in the dash for it. I have previously installed a...

Almost forgot. Merch..

Lazy Today, Just the fill pipe and the Hellivue stainless T fitting. Quite a jumble. One more transfer hose to put in here. The line itself is fuel rated hose, turned out to be 9.5". The oem fill had 4" cut out of it and deburred. I bought it at a hose specialty shop, 2 napa s and one autozone...
