[s-cars] the GB CPS how too install?

[Vincent Frégeac]

Hi Eric,

What I suspect is a fuel pressure leak that let the 5-10% ethanol we have in
our fuel evaporate when the engine is hot, thus leaving only vapors to start
the engine, something that happened to Paul due to a bad FPR, with more or
less the same symptoms. Running the fuel pump with a direct 12V would not
change the fuel leak behavior or tell me if it's the pump, the FPR or the
check valve... except if I'm missing something in your tip, which is very
possible.

If you even suspect a dying fuel pump, why not just run some jumper
wires from the battery back to the fuel pump connector on the top of the
tank just to see if it runs with a direct 12V applied?  It's easy to do
and costs nothing (assuming you've got some lengths of wire laying
about).
