Re: Fuel pump conversion
In my opinion the mechanical pump (which has been around since Hector was a pup) has a better life expectancy than most electrics. Electrics are used on EFI engines because of the higher fuel pressures required, not because they are more reliable. Electrics also need to be wired through the oil pressure switch so the pump cannot run if the engine dies thus eliminating the chance for the pump to feed a fire. That also means a bypass circuit is needed when cranking since there is no oil pressure until the engine starts. Keep what you have. If there is a fuel feed issue, fix the issue.
