Noah, Your absolutely right, But, If the car is running then there has to be fuel pressure. Other causes of fuel covering the FP is it's leaking back into the boot if the clamp isn't tight around the return line and you have an over full or full tank of gas. Slight leak at the dome nut is also correct. Just as an FYI, The fuel pump electric motor is turning in gas inside the pump. You would think it would blow up, but I have never heard of one doing it. The adjustment I recommend is to compensate for wear over the years. Slight tweak a lot of the times will stop the hunting and again will compensate for CPR pressure and wear. You can still have fuel pressure around the system. But, when you trying to start the car and the control plunger doesn't rise. No start. Vacuum is also a culprit. John hervey http://www.specialtauto.com/fuelsystems.shtml << All the fuel in the system was draining back into the fuel pump boot (not to mention the fact that fuel was spraying everywhere while the car was running). No pressure == no hotstart. Retorqued the dome nut and things *seem* to be okay; juries still out, but it's definite *better* at the very least. Sometimes is really *is* the simple things. >>
