That sucks, Dutch. What a pile of work. I am wondering now if that is my problem as well.

I have a Holley carb but I found out by accident, that I had been sold a Carter fuel pump #P-4601-HP which puts out a maximum of18 psi whereas I wanted the #P-4600HP which puts out 8 psi. I found out after a year of use after the pump packed it in and I went in to exchange it. I still can’t believe that my needle and seats were able to handle that pressure to some extend at least.

Although I never noticed gas in my oil, whenever I stepped on it, a plume of smoke would be left behind. I really don’t want to be bothered pulling it all apart, so I’ll see if this year it might start deglazing the walls and seating the rings. When I travel under light to medium throttle, I do not see smoke.
If you where getting 15 lbs. of pressure from this pump with out a regulator and it if the pump free flows 100 GPH.You would hydraulic the engine.
