At one time I built custom...

    gen 3 banks intake install?

    cp4x pump in hand.. reroutes flow from bottom end back to tank NOT into rails, plus pins buckets so they cannot rotate.. Still in my mind better to add lube to fuel to help rollers. BUT I think this will solve the cp4 problem. I know it is one issue off the list..
