I replaced the electric pump just before I went to the track. Set the pressure at 6 psi. I'll check for volume at the carb. Mph seems to get slower with each run. First is usually 86-87 last night it slowed to 82.5 mph with a 1.64 60' time

I just checked fuel at the carb. Took 43 seconds to pump a gallon.
