[Peugeot-L] 505 '87 Gas Tanks

  Just a little query- on the '87 505's: I had a V6 STX, and it also had a fuel pump in the gas tank. My '87 turbo doesn't have that extra pump in the tank.

   Is this a mod, or is it the way it came? I vaguelly remember them switching 505 gas tanks at the P dealership years ago for some sort of recall but my info is scant and the memory is fuzzy ??.

   My fuel pump on the turbo seems a bit more noisy than necessary, but it's fine. I mean, it works, but maybe it works a little too hard (?) It seems noisier than what could be, but then, I'm a purist. I know what it sounds like when everything is working, meaning that you can't hear it.

 You know, I found out that the fuel comes from the bottom of the tank, as opposed to coming out the top.

 I don't have an aversion to replacing that aux pump. I'm thinking that if I retrofitted with the dual pump tank, I would imagine it to be a good upgrade. VW-Pierburg fuel pumps- cheap thrills.
