Once or twice won't hurt but I wouldn't make a habit of it. On the subject of fuel pumps and intank cradles I found that with any less than half a tank my car runs out of fuel, now that I've upped the power and changed the pump. It was ok down to nearly a quarter before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely not making a habit out of it I just like to know the ACTUAL capacity of my car, rather than the on the dash of B-series "Range". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to buy a surge tank at the same time as I bought my pump but I figured I can just keep the tank topped up and it'd be ok. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really should get it tuned, though haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
