  If it does have the lower lubricity "problem" like you'd have with #1,
there's
a solution.  You can get different vanes for the pickup portion of the
pump such as our VE pumps.  They're designed to run on lower
lubricity.  I think the cam plate assy. is available for #1 as well.  This
from my visit at the pump rebuilder in TX.  :)
