<VV> Both Electric and Mechanical fuel pumps

[Vanderlind, Patrick]

I was thinking of installing an electric fuel pump as a backup to my
mechanical on my 62 'vert. Can an electric pump, while shut off, allow fuel
to pass? Also does the mechanical allow fuel to pass thru while the engine
is not running? I want it to be able to fill the carbs after sitting for
several days. I would imagine this would help save on the starter. 
 
 
Anybody have any experience with this?
 
Thanks.
