FWIW I was told if you put your meth in a different container than the one it came in, make sure it never had any gas or anything else oil based in it. I never did and my seals started to leak but I was told by the place that installed mine that it's the most common reason for the seals to go bad.

 

Both of mine leaked from the pump head, I think Julio made some type of improvement in the third pump I got from him. I had that one for about 2 years and it never leaked.

 

Exact problem i had. $88 rebuild plus shipping.

 

alky control for 3 years. had to rebuild my pump once. but probably a bit my fault. my motor oil cooler line was leaking onto it. fixed leak and pump.

 

Brought the pump failure up to him and he said there has been some improvements to the pump design recently, and that as long as the pump is mounted correctly, I should have a plenty of years of trouble free service.

Another question is about when **** does hit the fan, is any one running any kind of fail safe, or should I have it tuned with some cushion for error if I do have a failure of some kind and I back out asap I don't have some type of catastrophic failure.

 

I also just ordered an alky control kit. Dual nozzle. The parts came in and were packaged very professionally and clean. I ordered the 2 gal meth tank from Trick.

 

You could tune it on the fat side... but I can't think of a way to tune in a "failsafe" so to speak without wiring up something intricate. Even then I coulddnt tell you how to do that haha

Maybe something that makes IAT spike if the meth isnt working properly... that would dump more fuel and kill timing. I have no idea how to do that though. Just tossing an idea out there.
