Fuel Accumulators?

MM, ok now I see what you meant in your other post.

This is by Ryan M;

"Dual fuel pump systems must have a fuel accumulator between them. Fuel accumulators store fuel from the low pressure pump for the high-pressure pump. Storing fuel is a great idea for rock crawlers, as the accumulator holds a reserve of fuel, just in case gravity temporarily affects the gas tank. Accumulators also equalize fuel flow between the pumps. If one pump is pushing over 75GPH and the other is only flowing 50GPH, something has to give. Once the accumulator is full, excess fuel flows out to the return fuel line, and back to the tank. This keeps the low-pressure pump from stressing the high-pressure pump..."

& a pic by BrandonThat one from BC is a good replacement;

& see this by Steve

I believe the dealer can get you a new seal; and I think it has plastic fuel line ports, so be careful when removing it.

nope i had to buy a whole new unit they didnt sell just the seal...i was considering welding it closed, you open it up and everything and it seems like there is no reason it should ever need to be opened....but i guess they used to put a filter in it? now it is just an empty bowl
