And it will happen quickly..

Alex is right
however if you fit it as a switched system then there is not a problem, the OCMPG crew have this as a standard mod to our trucks using the toggle switch for blackout lights, on 11 and 12 cabs.
We use it for priming on cold start and for hot start vapour lock problems and also for vapour lock during prolonged hill climbing on hot days, .........yes it can get that hot in Oxfordshire at least on one day a year.
