I think a few people would love to know Maybe stick it under the DIY Section
Is it an afternoon job?Or a whole day-er

i heard that Walbro pumps may not be very dependable. From reliable source. But that is only an opinion. I wish more choices where out there. Mazsports kit looks real good and I may end up with that.
