Good to hear another success story running one fuel pump. I like simple! After extensive testing, I'll probably convert the spade ends I crimped on with some sort of weather proof connector.

That's an expensive gauge to fail on you within a couple years! I doubt I'll even spend 25% of that on a gauge.

I was having all kinds of problems with the efi transplant

And this was in '99.
With only dial up Internet and message boards so not a lot of help online

Bought the gauge to be able see the fuel pressure in real time while driving

It's a great gauge before it croaked and I run topless and doorless all summer so that probably didnt help

I use a clear plastic filter between the tank and pump so I can see the dirt In it and wow , you'd be surprised how often you have to change it

And I had to drop the tank and replace the in tank filter sock Or may be I just got rid of the sock
I don't remember
Anyway it was a problem

The efi constantly circulating the fuel will keep the dirt stirred up and clog the Intank sock if you didn't buy a new tank when you did the efi conversion
