It will be 10am over here in the land of the rising sun, so I will be on duty. Hope you guys have a great meeting. My car's been running pretty good since I got it on the road a couple of weeks ago. However, I do have a bit of an oil leak around the fuel pump. I'm thinking of switching over to a facet electric model. what do you guys think?

Yes, do a elec. fuel pump. That is on my list of things to do. I lost an engine to a fuel pump(mech.). it leaked fuel into the case and thinned the oil, it was very ugly and the tow bill was big.

The chat room is screwed! I can't log on either.:befuddled
I was late anyway. Yetibone P.S. Shep, I'm using a Facet valve pump on Sue's GL. It works great, has plenty of fuel volume without alot of extra pressure. I still had to get a Holley 12-804 regulator to get the press. down to 2.5psi for the Dell DRLA's. I mounted it up front and under the car, beside the fuel outlet on the tank because it's easier for a pump to push liquid than it is to pull liquid. It's out of the way of the idler arm and in a pretty protected spot from water and road funk. I had to drill a hole in the drain plug and cut some threads to screw into it a larger outlet for the fuel tank. The original 1/4 inch outlet was way too small.

Yeti...
Thanks for the info. I think I'm going to go with a Facet same as you. Hopefully, I'll be able to install it this weekend. I'll let you know how it turns out. Later, Shepp |
