[Spridgets] Installing fuel pump

[Peter C]

Everyone.... throw the "NAPA dial"   style pressure regulators away. 
Especially if purchased in the past decade. They are failing with 
some regularity... With luck they will only block the flow, but they 
could also leak all over.

A proper fuel pressure regulator will have 3 lines. 1 in, 1 to the 
carb(s) and 1 going back to the tank for the excess. The 2 line 
NAPA/Purolator/Holley/whoever-the-heck's label one is a RESTRICTOR 
not a regulator.

         Glad to help.
