There is no primary pump, only a high pressure injector pump that is driven from the cam gear. It sucks it from the tank and through the filter. Most guys are changing the filter every 10K, I think the books says 15K. Injector pump produces up to 26,000 psi, computer determines pressure. There is a fuel cooler just in front of the tank.
