[Spridgets] Bugeye - Electric Fuel Pump Question

[David Booker]

Howard,
The Mr. Gasket pump is a "pusher" type pump.  It does not like to pull
fuel from a long distance, so that is your problem.  I use the same pump on my
'71, only it is mounted under the car behind the passenger seat (where the
stock electric fuel pump is mounted on cars later than your BE) Works great
there.

On
my Bugeye, I have a Mr. Gasket electric fuel pump, mounted on top of the 
left
front fender well, adjacent to the carbs. After sitting dormant for a 
few 
weeks, the pump appears to lose it's prime. Would I have better 
success of 
the pump staying primed if I were relocate it to the rear, adjacent to 
the
fuel  tank, making it a pusher instead of a sucker?
