Eric,

I was unaware of the defects in FCP Groton pumps. In fact, I'd purchased from FCP because of their products' general good standing in this forum. Thanks to your advice, I'll be extra vigilant for problems. If problems do occur, I guess I'll be forced to go with a new Pierburg pump or just live with the one I've got. I was going to install an in-line fuel pressure guage after the FCP pump. Since I've already ordered from FCP, can you tell me how much fuel pressure is normal for 140s?

BTW, I always carry a fire extinguisher in the back seat. For some reason, past experiences with smoking brakes, red-hot wiring, melting antennas, leaking exhaust, and smouldering manifolds have made me a little nervous :/

Regards,

B.C.
