Its seems for now - something quick that I may just stick with - if just getting a mechanical fuel pump and be done with this. Easiest, cheapest route. I could try to mount the elctrical pump correctly, but at this point, it going to be a ***** to do and the outlet on the supplied tank is in an "extremely fragile" state due to design. I am afraid to even look at the damn thing. I am going to save up for the stainless one, but thats another subject.

For sure - I have absoluley no leaks.

Easiest, cheapest thing to do, to enjoy driving the car - all the time - is just put in a mechanical fuel pump.

But I am still puzzled - why its spitting fuel now, its under real pressure - but the car still acts like there is no fuel. Air? I don't get it. How can there be fuel spraying like a garden hose and still the engine acts like their is no gas?

I will get the mechnical now, but although we addressed the long term pump problem, I still don't get why it won't start today.
