Exactly correct. Electric fuel pumps push, they do not pull. I remember as a kid working in an auto parts store when the new trend was for everyone to go out and buy Mallory or Accel racing type electric fuel pumps to go with the new Holley double pumpers that were on sale and generally too big for their car engines. We used to get guys bringing in their failed or faulty electric fuel pumps all the time looking for warranty exchanges. Instead of putting them back at the tank syphon to push to the engine, they were blocking off the hole from the old mechanical pump at the block, and mounting the electric pump under the hoods because the yellow Accel or red Mallory electric pumps under the hood with new steel braided line going to that overly big double pumper looked cool. None of it worked so good, but all of it combined looked really cool. They were burning them up left and right using them to pull as they do not do, as opposed to push as they are engineered to do, so we didn't warranty them. These days, factory electric fuel pumps are generally mounted in the tank to make the draw for the push as short as possible.
