The smaller tank on the motor is the main oil tank. Make sure that the float switch is free to move up and down. If the float is stuck in the down or middle position the ECU will not know to stop the remote tank oil pump. If you are not sure, remove the float switch assembly and hold the float all of the way up. Have someone turn the key on. The pump should not run.
