I too have used a basic electronic pump from a local auto parts store in
series (between the tank and the SU pump) for about 10 years. No issues
whatsoever. I finally needed it last summer on a drive. Got me home just
fine. Just make sure you use a pump with the proper pressure, which is very
low. Not sure what it is in metric scale.

Keith, I have used a backup pump in series with a negative earth SU in my
BJ8 for 10 years. It works fine. I also have a switch to select either
pump on, or both off. The latter provides some additional security against
theft when on the road.
