Silky:
youi said:
<<Correct me if I'm wrong but that pump only runs when there is insufficent pressure and due to the weight of the fuel in the wing I was always under the impression that it gravity feeds.>>

depends on
a) your aircraft type for when that DC pump runs or not, and

b) wether the wing is higher than the APU or vice versa....
