This is the one I have been using to feed my surge tank. It seems to work well and haven't had any issues yet. I had some noise from it but it was caused but not mounting it properly and the body of the pump was touching some steel, giving off some vibration.

I also have a small bleed line of 3/16" coming from my surge tank and tees into the return line. This ensures that I do not build up pressure in the surge tank.

I searched and noticed that one too. It flows 100 gallons per hour, which is 450 ltr/h (?) which is quite a lot: a 044 pumps 300 ltr/h at 3 bar fuel press. and 250 at 4 bar I believe. That means a lot of by-pass. I think the other Carter pumps with 72 gallon/h rate (325 ltr/h?) would still provide more then the 044, but not have as much by-pass.
Too much pump in general would not be a problem however

Tnx.
