List,

I was off list since May. Netsky32 & Sasser Virus's shut me down.

What was the original thread about this fuel pump ???

If it an original fuel pump, the diaphragms inside will turn to black gook
if modern, non-leaded gas is used.

The fuel pump must be rebuilt. You can save $$$ by buying the parts. It
is not a hard job, just time consuming.
