Just get a Facet solid state pump. Moss sells them for $75. or you can go to
Aircraft Spruce and order the very same pump for $32.95. Go to the link below
and order the pump at the very bottom of the Facet pump chart. Exactly the
same specs, exactly the same pump. I have on on my Bugeye with a 1275 and it
works perfectly. Mount it near the tank. Have a filter before or after the
pump or ideally both places.
