How about a Dart/OM 4-way for your return??

I jumped the gun and bought a Dart for the return, but didn't really think about the requirements of the pump. Looks like I should have bought an Uno for my return. Since I have this brand new Dart, can't I just hook it up to an OM 4-way or Squirt/Super Squirt for the return??

Rich Conely, if you are out there, I'd value your opinion.

I would'nt split it into 4. I have mine split in 2 and I find that the flow is really reduced. With 4, it would prolly be like using 4 maxi-jets or worse.

Ok. I understand. I just talked to Paul at OM and he really stressed the point to use the Dart for a closed loop instead. So I guess I am either going to drill my tank for a closed loop, go over the wall for a closed loop or trade/sell the Dart for another Sequence return pump. My wife is going to freak out on me!!
