Thanks!

Are you pumping into a sealed tank, or a vented tank?

If it's the former, then all you need is a roller mounted on the servo arm and mount the servo in such a way that it will pinch the hose closed when the servo is at neutral.

You need to use a soft silicone hosing for this to work effectively.

It's the system used by Sheerline/Eden for their boats.
