    Hi Mully.

    If you have some pics of your tank & switch, it should be relatively easy to identify. Not too many manufacturers for a D3/D4 tank.
    Most ( if not all ) transfer pumps on D3/D4 installations, will be manually switched. It could be the racket yours makes, is when it is pumping dry. Not a good idea. Best to shut it down quickly.

    Hey Admiral thanks for that, much appreciated. Will take some snaps in the daylight for sure.. be great to find out a bit more.
    When it was rowdy I pushed the little switch on the LED gauge but it kept running BUT I am unsure of the operation of this unit.
    Apologies for the thread hijack but hopefully this may be useful for others.
    Cheers!

    L/100 is obtained from fuel usage from the injector open time, nothing to do with what's gone from the tank. Distance to empty is calculated from what fuel the gauge says is in the tank. If you add fuel to the tank, the distance to empty increases.

    Thanks Graeme
    I am after the input I got, going to go for a 110lt tank with transfer pump. I just liked the simple sound of not more electrics.
    I drove a 130 for the last 9 years and Im still geting my head around so much electrics and to think they dont leak electricity never lone oil
