Here is the Sig Gas Passer. It comes with two nipples that you can use to regulate the fuel flow, Save these. You also need to make up your own wire connection. Below are some pictures of the pump as it comes from Sig, the pump with the wire connection, and the whole set up ready to go.

The pump is rated at 12v. I went with 9.6v as to not over work the pump or my tanks. It will also keep the air bubbles to a minimum. Here is a picture of the battery located in the bottom of the box. I used some Velcro to hold it in place.

Thanks Bubba,

I went with two filters one between the fuel source and the pump and one between the pump and fill line. I also used the supplied regulating nipples. I tried it with out them at first but there was to much air in the system for my likening. After I installed the nipples all the air in the system was non existent. You can also see my charge lead poking through the center of the box.

Here is the stainless steel mounting blank. I outlined where I wanted my opening and where I wanted my box to sit. I then used a Dremmel cut off wheel to score the opening. Then I was able to punch it out with a little pressure. Next I took a grinding wheel and smoothed out the edges and got rid of the burs.

You can also see where I drilled through the blank to accept the 4 little stubs that the project box has. Also above each hole you can see where there is a nut. This nut corresponds to the bolt on the inside of the box that attaches the box to the blank. What is really nice about this box is that it has all the holes and stuff pre marked. Kind of like it was meant for this

Here is a quick wiring diagram of the switch, battery and charge lead.

Hi Gordon,

Looks slick, nice modeling, thanks for posting.

You might want to add a little fuse, I remember trying to blow out my buddy's home made box at Superman, no names (Rob Janiger)

Nice work, Gordon. I see you're using Festo fittings to connect fueling lines. I went to twist connect Luer fittings - prevalent in the medical world - because they're cheap if you can find a source. Examples of male and female shown below. They cost pennies apiece and I buy them by the *****load at Industrial Specialties (Denver, CO - 303.781.8486/Linda). Fwiw, BVM sells small versions for air line connectors.

I have the same exact pump setup sorta. I used it since 2003 with no problems.

Although after a year I dropped down to a 6 volt battery on the pump. Any more expands the fuel tanks too much

Thanks Mike. I just took a look at their web site [link=http://www.industrialspec.com]www.industrialspec.com[/link]. Wow, they have quiet an extensive catalog. Awesome, thanks again.

Thanks for the posts Bubba ! I just did mine - why didn't I do it sooner it was so simple.
