Good replies Ross and HH56. However, I'd like to point out that while the stock fuel system on an S8 was probably adequate back in the day, just with the advent of ethanol (10-15%), it is marginal today. Throw in the factors discussed above and it's obvious that the stock, unrestored fuel system is problematic. At least an electric pusher pump is required to overcome all the factors, given that there are no restrictions in the line.

A V8 is whole 'nother matter, particularly in the good ole summertime.
