Robert- Sounds like a horror story I encountered. My car started cutting out on me when going around sharp curves. I thought I had air somewhere in the lines, so I pulled out the fuel pump to discover: NO BAFFLE!! Even worse, instead of the hose assemblies running to and from the fuel pump, the fuel return hose just hung down in the tank, and the pickup hose was nonexistant. What was there was a piece of copper tubing, clamped onto the fuel pump with a piece of fuel hose, and instead of the pickup screen (this is the funny part) a mantle from a kerosene lantern!!! And I wondered why I had fuel problems..... Scott 16738
