When I decided to change the engine on ZS-WEC, I realized once the new
engine (VW 2.4 liter) got delivered that it did not have a fuel pump port.
So, I bought a Facet fuel pump, and I was hoping to gravity feed from the
header tank, through the Facet, to the carb.

Well, the Facet seems to bring quite a flow restriction. Moreover, that
restriction is not consistent. It depends on where the pump mechanism sits
when you switch off. So, my 2.4 liter won't work at full RPM without the
pump on.

I have a warning light (light on-"pump on"), but the Facet being mounted
inside the cockpit, I know I won't need a warning to know it has stopped!
