Well I feel stupid...

I thought my fuel pump had gone out on me since the voltage in the stock wiring dropped when the blinkers were on and it all ready wasn't getting 12 volts. So I got a relay and wired it all up, only had to get under the car and swap out pumps, but I got sick and put it off for a week and a half. I finally jack up the car and get ready to swap when I look at the plug on connectors on the carter fuel pump and hte positive plug was knocked off. the two plugs are right up against hte brake line there so I guess it got worked off over time. I put a zip tie on it to tighten it's grip and hopefully it will stay on for a while. I'll provide a more permanent solution when I have the time. So my car is running just fine. Gotta get approx. 120 miles on it before Friday night so I can run her at the drag strip with the other rotaries. I think I just might keep her for a while. I need to reinstall the stereo so I can listen to something besides fuel pump whine. Anyways. Just thought some of you would like to know. See some of you at the Tulsa BBQ this weekend.
