Gotta love those little square Facets! I was thinking of those as soon as
this thread started. I've used them as dedicated fuel pumps on non injected
cars for years. I also kept one with some hoses and a long power cord in the
trunk (oops... boot) for emergency purposes. I actually had the occasion to use
it for that purpose once. It saved me hours of waiting for a tow. The car ran
as though it never knew the difference.
