Update on Morison DeBug unit for diesel fuel systems

Seeing as how it was over 2 years ago that I installed it, I decided to pull my Morison and Morison DeBug unit out today and see what the inside now looked like. It had small amount of very fine sand/silt but no evidence of any algae etc. I cleaned the 3 large powerful magnets and reinstalled them.

However, I have not refitted it to the Patrol yet as I am a bit concerned that it's location could have a bearing on my temperature issue (stange as it might seem). The reason relates to something Dozer said on here the other day in response to a question about a smokey 80 series. He pointed out that if the fuel pump is under an abnormal load, it could affect the engine's timing, which in turn could cause the engine to run warmer than it should. Now when I fitted the DeBug unit, the only place I could find to mount it was under the driver's side footwell, mounted to the chassis rail. As I did not want to cut the fuel pipe where it ran by right near the DeBug, I decided instead to run a fuel line from just under the original fuel filter where the steel pipe terminates, back to the DeBug, then from the DeBug back up to the fuel filter (CAV replacement). This has added about 6 foot of extra hose and would have presumably made the fuel pump's job a fair bit harder than it was designed for.

So I'm now trying to find somewhere close to the CAV filter where I can mount the DeBug. I may have to try and mount it on the chassis rail just behind the steering box (hard to get to), or also wondering if I could cobble some sort of bracket to attach it to the rear of the inlet manifold, right opposite the filter.

Another issue which Dozer also raised was the use of an additional fuel pump....Walbros was a name he mentioned. I did a google search and found that these pumps seem to be used by hoons with hotted-up Bluebirds etc and I have no idea whether such a pump would help my situation and if so, what model or pumping capacity etc?

I have no interest in Morison's business but if anybody is interested, they have a website.......www.morison.com.au............there is an article in there about the same unit i have, which Ron Moon has (or did have) fitted to his GU. I recall he mounted his on the passenger's side near the vaccuum canisters, but that area on my vehicle is taken up with ABS and the pump for my Twine shower.
