hi guys, I'm putting an oil reticulation system to 20 engines spread around in a 50x50m area. It will be supply & return line to individual engines lube oil with one pump station. This will feed the new oil to the engine as well as removed the contaminated during oil change. I have no problem with the supply line but only the return line which bothers me. The engine will be elevated at 0.3m only. The fartherst engine is 80m away from the pump. Will the pump aid in sucking the oil from the line? Is there any specific pump that will do this? Any help will be much appreciated, thanks.
