Hello all, I just introduced myself on the new member forum, and I have a question.
The fuel pump of my TR6 (USA carb version) has developped a small external leak, and I consinder replacement with a Facet electrical pump and pressure regulator.
I fear that if these mechanical pumps fail, and start leaking fuel into the engine oil system, this may go unnoticed untill disaster strikes.
I also think that the likelihood of this kind of failure becomes more real as result of the ethanol content in today's fuel.
So here my questions: Is my fear justified ? and what is your experience with the Facet electical pumps ?
Thank you,
Peter.
