Turk -
I think I know what your problem was.....the Holley pump just can't survive on STRAIGHT Raki.........you've got to DILUTE the stuff! If you're nice to BLACKJACK - he MIGHT share with you his formula for adding Raki to the tank without making it too strong!
I run a Holley electric thru my mechanical...have already blown a diaphram in the pressure regulator once.....
better luck to you with the Carter....
