Car Fuel Pump ?
 

Hey I was wondering if this would work decently?

Thanks!

Fuel pumps are very low flow. And by very I mean VERY low flow.

Awww come on now, some of us might want 500GPH of gas going through our fuel lines! :p Thats equel to what? A Boeing 747? :D

I have seen 100GPH rated fuel pumps, which are intended for driving supercharged 6-8 litre V8's and the like.

One of those would do well, but they're horribly noisy, being vane-style pumps.

A 747? Try more like 5000GPH (I'm not kidding).

A 747-400 holds around 57000 Gal of fuel, and can be in the air for up to 15 hours non-stop with a full passenger load.

Ok, so thats roughly 3,800GPH! Glad I don't have to fill that up everyday (or twice a day)!

Yeah, 3800GPH in "cruise" mode. In a full throttle "take off" you can basically triple that to ~10000GPH.

Still though, 57000Gal (~210K litre) is enough to even run a large SUV for a just little while. :)

If I had a 57000 gallon tank, I don't think I'd still have my problem of forgetting to fill the tank and the car running out of gas....

since I haven't driven long enough to use that much yet :)

i was installing some flow meters on my uncles boats for the gas lines to his outboards and used this nifty adapter I had made for testing waterblocks(connects to the hose then reduces down to 3/8ths barb)to test the flowmeters without having to run the engines. Basically they didnt read over 30 gph(engine was a dual v6(as in 2 engines)with 2 liter displacement on each i beleive)because fuel flow is very low.
