[Fot] fuel pressure regulator

[William Dewar]

Listers,  For street brit cars a more reliable  pump I found was a
mitsubishi for a 1984 Honda Accord. It fit under the ls floor along rocker
and even sounded like an SU style. It has points but does not seem to be
affected by sitting around. Around 2psi if I remember. Was 85.00
 new last time I checked. Have not bought one in a while.
