[T3] Fuel Pump Frenzy

Before the Invasion, Gary gave me 2 dead FI fuel pumps. At the 
Invasion Bob gave me 2 more. In my basement I had a few lying around 
in various conditions, waiting for attention. Now that I'm home, our 
busy June has ended, and I've gone on a binge of fuel pump 
rebuilding. In the past 3 days, I've probably rebuilt 8 of them. Now 
I've got so many on the shelf that I'm starting to feel overwhelmed.

That cleans up some of the clutter in my basement, but few people 
would notice the difference. It's still a mess down there. I've got 
distributors to finish and parts to sort. There are piles of Type 3 
items everywhere. The only good news is that I still know pretty much 
where to find what I'm looking for.

I still prefer to rebuild and return your own parts, but in many 
cases I can sell you a replacement if you don't have the right one or 
if the one you have is beyond saving. Keep in mind that even those 
often have useful parts, so I like to get them anyway. I'll tear them 
down, save what's potentially useful, and recycle the rest.

At the Invasion I passed out copies of a price list I had finally had 
time to work on. By necessity, it's incomplete, but it's still 8 
pages long. I don't want to just mail these out on request, that's 
too expensive, but I'll try to remember to include one in every 
outgoing package. I hope those of you who got a copy at the Invasion 
will hang on to yours and keep it where you can find it.
