<p>That depends on the temperature of the fuel and the composition.

</p>
<p>If it is under 3,8psi there is no problem as the pump delivers
3,8psi (that is the original equipment AUF 301/3/5 or its
SU-Burlen replacement AZX1308)</p>

you start hearing the pump run really
quickly, it can be indicative of vapor
lock getting back into the fuel line...
can happen at the end of long trips.
It's because the fuel starts vaporizing
around where the line goes into the
floats, and the float jet then is no
longer cutting off fuel flow because it
is pushing vapor into the float bowls,
which leaks out the overflow tube. As
long as your car is running it should be
okay, you might use more fuel than
normal. Try wiring a piece of wood to
the incoming fuel line - this is an old
trick with Atlantics to act as a heat
sink on hot days and stop vapor lock on
the Atlantics which use mechanical fuel
pumps.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

I took my Healey BN& out for its
first good run of the season -- 75
miles of southern Oregon backroads
-- with our local Rogue Euro Car
Group. Everything was terrific from
start to finish. Car started on the
first push of the button after
sitting for six weeks, ran smoothly
from start to finish, never faltered
in restarts, everything nominal.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

Except that, towards the end of the
run on a pretty hot day (in mid 90s
though the car never ran warm all
day) as I was cruising along about
40 mph, the fuel pump started
tapping at a high rate of speed and
pretty continuously -- certain
enough so I could hear it behind me.
I have a standard original-spec
points-style fuel pump, purchased
new from Moss about 10 years ago and
running without any issues every
since. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
