Fuel transfer repair.

@Winnie @AB both have fitted long range sub tanks to their GQs without the factory transfer setup. I think they both just have an in-line pump and time it manually. They borh set it up for the Meetup in the middle 10 years ago. They dont have a factory guage.

I had my belly tank running out of a 5 port valve, so what went from the tank returned to the tank on fuel return circuit. I had difficulty getting every drop out of the tank, so converted it to a transfer pump to tank set up and whilst it still had its own matched VDO gauge and sender unit, I just operated it via watching the fuel level rise in the man gauge. Worked flawlessly, and with in line filters the transfer pump was protected from the sludge and dust that gets into the fuel. The additional gauge was handy from the perspective it gave me an indication of the level of discharge. The pump was a cheapie and a diaphragme type from memory and didnt mind running 'dry' but in essence it had a coating of slimy diesel so all good.

Yep works quite well and I think it was 38 minutes to fill it up.
