Even worse, if pump hoses are backwards are pushing against distributor regulator. Don't think fuel will get in that way (spring should keep closed). Plus is unfiltered -- even if it did get in could pollute your distributor and injectors. Are you *SURE* fuel is entering distributor? Or holding enough pressure? With RPM relay jumped you should have counter pressure on air sensor plate and hear whine/wheeze when activated manually.
