THE PUMPS CONTAINED IN THE KITS ARE NOT COMPATIBLE WITH MODERN PUMP GAS: AS UNBELIEVABLE AS IT SOUNDS, THE PARTS CONTAINED IN THEIR CARB KITS ARE NOT COMPATIBLE WITH THE FUEL THEY ARE DESIGNED TO BE IMMERSED IN.  WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PUMPS IN THEIR KITS ARE EXPOSED TO CURRENT GASOLINE PUMP BLENDS, THE PUMP RUBBER SWELLS, BECOMES SOFT, SEIZES IN THE PUMP BORE, AND SHEARS ITSELF OFF THE PUMP SHAFT.  THIS RESULTS IN A COMPLETELY INOPERATIVE ACCELERATOR PUMP, WHICH WILL CAUSE A VEHICLE TO STALL UNDER SUDDEN ACCELERATION, SUCH AS WHEN PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC. THIS CREATES AN EXTREME HAZARD WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR INJURY AND DEATH.  NAPA/ECHLIN HAS BEEN AWARE OF THIS FOR OVER 2 YEARS, YET CONTINUES TO SELL DEFECTIVE PUMPS IN THEIR KITS. THE LINKS TO THE PHOTOS BELOW SHOW THE CONDITION: THE BLUE RUBBER \"CUP\" IS SEIZED IN THE BORE AND SHEARED OFF THE PLASTIC PUMP SHAFT.  THE CARB IN THE PHOTOS WAS INSTALLED ON A ?68 CHEVROLET CORVETTE AND RUN ON PUMP GAS IN OKLAHOMA WITH A CARB KIT AND ACCEL PUMP FROM NAPA/ECHLIN.  AFTER HOURS IN SERVICE, THE PUMP SWELLED AND SHEARED ITSELF RIGHT OFF THE PUMP SHAFT.  THE RUBBER REMAINED SEIZED IN THE PUMP BORE WHILE THE UPPER PUMP ROD CONTINUED TO MOVE UP AND DOWN AS IF IT WERE OPERATING NORMALLY.  THE CAR HAD A DANGEROUS STUMBLE, AND WOULD DIE ON SUDDEN ACCELERATION FOLLOWING INSTALLATION OF THE ECHLIN PARTS.   I HAVE PERSONALLY SEEN SEVERAL DOZEN OF THESE DEFECTIVE ECHLIN PUMPS, AND ECHLIN IS FULLY AWARE OF THE PROBLEM.  THEY HAVE INDICATED TO ME THAT THEY DON'T CARE, PLEASE CONTACT ME FOR FURTHER INFO, BUT PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS DANGEROUS ISSUE CAUSED BY WILLFUL NEGLECT ON THE PART OF THIS MANUFACTURER:   HTTP://I183.PHOTOBUCKET.COM/ALBUMS/X166/JUDGE1971/IMG_0518.JPG  HTTP://I183.PHOTOBUCKET.COM/ALBUMS/X166/JUDGE1971/IMG_0517.JPG  HTTP://I183.PHOTOBUCKET.COM/ALBUMS/X166/JUDGE1971/IMG_0516.JPG. *TR","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"9999","productMake":"UNKNOWN","productModel":"UNKNOWN","manufacturer":"UNKNOWN MANUFACTURER"},{"type":"Equipment","productYear":"9999","productMake":"ECHLIN","productModel":"ECHLIN","manufacturer":"ECHLIN INC."}]}]}
