I installed two pumps on my XK 150 but i installed them in paralell
with a switch.
i was having some vapor lock issues and switched pumps. it worked!

when it happened the second time i switched pumps again. it worked.
just lucky?

always remember to change pumps periodically to  assure that both work.
