I have killed a couple of carter inline fuel pumps. I am interested in getting a new low pressure fuel pump for dual carbs. What is the most cost effective and reliable system that I should get?

when you're testing the pump is it in or out of the car? are you pumping a fluid or running dry? also, is the large metal canister that the pumps come with still attached to the inlet of the pump?

I took the metal canister off for testing. I was not running the pump with fluid- I guess that I should since, from what I understand, it shuts off at low pressure. I will run it with fluid tonight. I really didn't think much of it cause it sounded the same as when I had it installed in the car. I suppose the same thing could have happened cause the canister was clogged causing it to shut off due to low pressure?
