Thats four :lol:

Get used to it or upgrade to efi.

the only experience i personally have with electric fuel pumps on zooks is on my mates. It was on there when he bought it. He constantly had fueling issues so replaced it with a standard mechanical pump and he never had another problem.

If the stock pump is working correctly i wouldnt change it.

Mine used to drown itself in the same way you describe, really bad when bouncing the front up ledges. I was told its actually the carby flooding the engine and i dont see how a different pump would change this.

I never tried to fix it though, just went straight to 1.6MPFI.

Don't know about a H25, but I have heard of an engineer who reckons he'd pass a H20 in a SWB Sierra....

My Father gets airborn on a regular basis (3rd gear low on 31's fast enough?), and has no problem with the carby starving. He only gets problems on really steep hills (as I did as well). Sorry couldn't resist, dad airborne on the weekend... hehehe Steknig, why get a GV when you can just nick the motor from one

Basically a carby uses gravity to work. Fuel is supplied to the float bowl through the neddle and seat valve. When the car is level or fairly level this works fine, the bowl is kept at the correct level by the action of the float on the neddle and seat balve. But once we throw in some angles, the design of the float bowl and the float itself become less effective. Then end result is either the neddle adn seat valve staying open causing the fuel level to get too high and spills over into the carby through the float bowl vent (usually when climbing), or the carby can starve for fuel as the fuel moves away from the jets (not really an issue with zook carbys). Layto....

Had the same issue today. Going up a step hill with a small step, bounce, snuff, right at the critical time when you need to punch over the step. Just another zuk charateristic to deal with.
