There seems to be some problems with OE fuel pumps packing up, which can strand the car anywhere, anytime. This is a bit like Russian roulette!
On rally cars of old they used to fit a 2nd fuel pump alongside the first, so that if one went down, it was a simple matter to switch over to the spare. It struck me that the very same thing could be done with our cars? I don't even know where the pump is, probably in the tank, but I wonder how difficult it would be to rig such a system in the Alpine?
Here is a link to a reasonably priced aftermarket, external pump, which might be usable for such a use.

Does anyone have any thoughts on this idea?
