Curious, did your carb guy check the anti-percolator valve?

I've come to finally accept that in certain extreme climates an electric fuel pump may be desired to overcome today's volatile gasoline. I've not found the need for one here in NJ where we often get in mid-summer to 95 degrees or so, but rarely warmer.

Unfortunately with 15% ethanol probably just around the corner, things will get worse so maybe the answer is to bite the bullet and install an electric pump now. But I'd wire it on a sort of "dead man" switch so you coulnd't leave it on as the primary pump.
