Outboard Johnson fuel pump question

    Well basically i have 4hp 2 stroke johnson /evinrude 2002 twin light


    The fuel pump is operating only for external tank.....internal tank is vacuum - gravity fed....

    My question - can i convert the internal tank and hook it to fuel pump? Instead of leaving it gravity fed?

    Engine is after full service and runs like a charm....only when running on internal tank its struggle while going full throttle - it doesn't get enough fuel fast and its struggling. External tank has no hassle...and runs like a watch....all the way..



    Would it be ok to swap the hosing and hook the internal tank to fuel pump? Sometimes i cant have external tank onboard so its not always an option....



    Anybody knows of thats ok?


    Carburettor is clean as whistle and brand new champion original plugs are in.... Again engine starts first pull and goes quiet.... Just wanna know if i can just run it through pump and not destroying anything in process.

    Thank you.
