To Andy Draper,

I have some theories on the fuel pump problem.

1. Return bleed orifice blocked.
2. Fuel filters dirty.
3. Vapour lock, if no fire sleeve used.
4. Pump check valve not working.

Also a theory on brake binding.

Incorrect brake fluid used,ie. Mineral H.F.A. This will swell the rubber
components.

Regards.
