Default RE: Before or After (that is the question!)

Hey Craig,

The ONE time I have seen it, the ECU "fried" and it wasn't commanding anything at that point other than supplying voltage to the fuel pump; the only thing that stopped it was unplugging the battery from the ECU. Nothing more than soaking everything with fuel happened, but it could have been much worse! Like I said, it is VERY RARE and obviously not many have seen it happen, hence the replies and votes.

Not sure about others, but my solenoids are after the pump and IF everything is working "properly" then all is well; the manual shut-off is before the pump for me in case of the above mentioned scenario, despite the extremely miniscule chance of it happening to me. I have never had a problem with it in that location, but I haven't run a turbine with more than 36#. My Mibo may require me to change my set-up due to component location, but I'll cross that bridge when I get to it.
