 Eliminate return line on ecotrons efi question Can the briggs efi fuel module (593890) be used to eliminate the need for a return line on an ecotrons efi kit?

Re: Eliminate return line on ecotrons efi question I believe I can answer my own question after reviewing the Briggs EFI repair manual. The Briggs fuel module is designed to provide 35 to 43 psig to the injectors. The Ecotrons kit uses a pressure regulator set to 3 bars that utilizes the return fuel line for pressure relief to provide 43 psig to the injectors. Therefore the briggs fuel module should be able to replace the fuel pump, pressure regulator and the return fuel line on the ecotrons system.
New question, has the briggs fuel module been reliable?

Re: Eliminate return line on ecotrons efi question Thanks for the info and smile. Now for the Rhetorical question; Is it worth $235 (cost of fuel module) to clean up/ simplify the fuel delivery system?
