Actually the fuel pump is run by a PRESSURE pulse and not vacuum.------------And how was this conversion done ?---Pictures of your pump.-----Not sure what you mean by ---" fuel return port " ----but that air pressure supply fitting was used to pressurize the tank.-----It should have been plugged.

Loud and clear. Thanks for clarification. Air pressure supply fitting will be plugged. Previous test where performed with fuel leak and a fire extinguisher near by jejeje. Conversion was done by replacing old system for a conventional 3 port fuel pump.
