Our MH came with an electric fuel pump, but was thinking that it got done when they first converted it to run on either propane or gas. Has worked good and you can hear it pretty good when you first turn the key and you can also here the tone of it change when pressure in the carb is up. Once started you don't even notice the pump any more. They mounted ours between the two tanks on the underside of the floor. They also had fuel 3 filters. One in the carb itself (a small metal mesh), there was also another aftermarket replaceable filter beside the engine. Last year coming back through the mountains I had some issues going up long steep grades, get part or most of the way up and it would start kicking and bucking a bit. If I slowed down it would smooth out so we limped back to Calgary that way. No problem when it was flat or downhill. Talked to a number of people and they all thought coil or ignition module so in the end I replaced them. Left Calgary to go to Red Deer and then back to Three Hills and just getting to Red Deer it jerked a couple of times. After that it was fine. Got to my cousin's place outside Three Hills and next day we got it into his shop. He has a farm and in one building has a pit that is about 30' long so we could get under it. He was sure that it was a fuel filter problem. Anyways we found another filter that was mounted up above the fuel filler necks for the dual tanks so very hard to get to and see. Changed it and no other problems getting home (another 450 miles or so)
