I did have an electric pump but I now have a mechanical one that works much better. The electric one just didnt seem to flow right. It could have been down to the position that I had it in that didnt help. I still have it so i'll have another play at some point.

The electric pump that I have was wired to the ignition from the battery. Its designed to be left on all of the time and increase the flow when the thermostat opens. I also have a thermoswitch on the top of my cylinder and was going to route it through this when I had more time but like I said I wasnt happy with the flow so went mechanical. In doing so I also removed the thrmostat, its not a problem you just have to give it longer to warm up but it doesnt take long at all and then it remains steady unless you thrash it but then it returns to normal

I think I kind of answerded your question
