Hi guys,

After about 9 months of use, my carter mechanical pump seems to be flagging again. Oil smells a little of gas and the engine has died a few times whilst driving (electrics stayed on). Im guessing that it's the fuel pump (screwed diaphragm), and the 2/3 empty fuel filter seems to suggest that also, but as always I am open to suggestions of those more knowledgeable than me :)

Any opinions on my dying car and gas-in-oil problem welcome.

If it is the pump, can anyone recommend a good make of fuel pump? I'd prefer to avoid electric pumps, I like the current system, and my Carter didn't last very long (the previous pump was replaced a year earlier by the car's former owner, and that was a Carter also, discarded for the same reason)

Also, if anyone could recommend a supplier who may be willing to ship to the UK that would be excellent, I can somtimes undercut UK dealer prices.

Thanks alot,
60Ply
