At this point i'm not sure if the Discount auto parts store electric pumps are just cheapo pumps or if maybe water/condensation is effecting them. Need to cut a few of the failed pumps apart to inspect. I'll try to get one today.

Another problem is cars that set around alot with tanks that are only 1/2 full or less will develope condensation in the tank.

An ongoing R&D project here i suppose. But i'm still leaning away from actual vapour lock as the popular diagnosis. Again, my 88 Ranger in DAILY operation just does not vapour lock. Maybe the daily operation helps to keep the water cleared out????
