Re: fuel pump

Lee, Your correct that if the pump runs out of fuel it will destroy 
it's self. The pump not only lives on the out side in gas also on the 
inside as well. The motor and all turn in gas. That's why I run 
injector cleanor through the gas to help lubricate the fuel pump 
inside as well. WD40 or other lubricant will help for a little while, 
but once the bearings are scored, that's it. A defective fuel screen 
will also add to the demise of the pump by picking up larger 
particles than it can handle. Once this happens, it's not long before 
it will leave you stranded. The 957 will handle the turbo just fine.
