Does your gas heater have its own fuel pump? The Eberspacher gas heaters (yours is probably a BN4) should connect directly to the top the gas tank, via a tap with 2 hoses. The gas is pumped from the gas tank to a jet, which allows only a fraction of the pumped gas to enter the combustion chamber. The excess gas is re-routed back to the fuel tank - sort of like a miniature fuel injection system. If your model has a fuel pump but the pump doesn't work, e-mail me, as I have successfully r&r'd a few pumps. HTH Joe Helwig.
