The feed will be the opposite side to the return pipe. It will come out of the same place as the fuel sender unit (identifyable by a 2 pin plug attached to it)

so your saying the feed will come out of the sender unit?
is there any difference between the external pump tank and the internal pump tank apart from the obvious of the pump being outside in a cradle and the pump being submerged in the tank.

has anyone cut an injection tank open to have a look inside and has anyone built a swirl pot to put inside a non injection tank as im thinking of splitting my tank and building a swirl pot.

cheers

Intank pump versions also have the same swirl pot fitted.

So you will either have a pump in the top of the tank, OR the feed to a pump coming from the fuel level sender(back of the tank)

If your feed pipe doesn't come from either, its a carb tank
