Lol, thanks.
He actually took the liberty of pm'ing me. He did inform me to block off 1 of the two holes associated with the priming system. Now thats all good and well, but leave that pump for long enough unsubmerged and the fuel leaks out again.
Either way, we tested them, saw how they worked, blocked off holes, submerged it, left it out of fuel, we did everything bar taking the bloody thing apart.
Its a shame they have to be modified. But I dont mind the 044. Still quiter than my stock pump I had. haha.
