Yep  

The Land Rover's fuel pump is an AC mechanical unit located on the right side of
the engine.  The fuel line goes up & over the valve cofer to the carb on the 
left side.  The intake manifold is in physical contact with the exhaust 
manifold.  If a trail is one car wide and a car in the middle bites it, the ones
behind are stopped too and everyone deals with vapor lock ;*)
