Both types provide constant pressure. Moving the pump to under the tank, as done in the FI systems, is a real benefit. If you install an electric pump, you MUST install a safety cutout that will automatically turn off the pump in case of an accident. This is a very important safety feature. I believe John J. has the info on picking one of these up a NAPA. IIRC, the price was $20-30. I agree with Steven, however, that this is probably not the CAUSE of your problem, so you should keep working to get to the bottom of this. -- ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
