One thing that has helped my vehicle a lot is a fuel pressure
regulator. Installed between the pump and carb.
It keeps fuel pressure in the line even if it has not started
in a week. Makes for instance starts.
Just a thought. Ollie From: 'Paul L.

Subject: Re: My Car's New Trick Re-reading your original post you talked about it stumbling a lot
and being hard to keep running after getting it restarted. Did that change
after installing the new fuel pump? You also said the clear fuel filter
was empty as soon as you shut it off and opened the hood. What is the
orientation of the filter? Is it sloped down towards the carb, towards the
fuel pump, or level? Just wondering if the fuel in the filter is draining
out one way or the other or evaporating out. Seems like it wouldn't
evaporate that quickly. So either the fuel pump (old one) wasn't pumping
like it should, maybe vapor locked or just a bad pump. What about your
fuel line coming from the tank? Does it run close to hot exhaust?
One trick also is to make a heat shield for the mechanical pump. I know
Rich (LeRoar) did this on is poly. And I think there a pattern for it on the
tech page. --
One other thing to mention, a friend of mine who drives a 62 Chebbie went through a number of fuel pumps before he got a good one. I think he was buying his at O'Reilly's. Frustrating isn't it? Best of luck. Paul L. On Monday, April 18, 2016 at 7:27:30 PM UTC-5, TopBanana wrote:
