Ethanol seems to have a varied appetite. I thought copper was OK.

I presume the "main" pump is switched off when the level stops it drawing fuel (as they're cooled and lubricated by fuel).
Yes, I was/am proposing to have a change over switch a bit like an indicator switch (on-off-on) in a concealed position, which gives some theft protection.

Perhaps something like this Tee piece would simplify things?
I had looked at a 90º 'T' connector but not keen on the 90º for flow. That's why I made a 'Y' connector, although I have since seen a plastic 'Y' connector like Rene suggested since I made mine, it probably doesn't matter that much but it just seemed better to have a 'Y' connector.
