| Agree, HRC pumps seem be be more reliable than the Walbro, I swapped out my walbro for that very reason, now running the HRC 340. | |

| How old is it, as they get worn and don't flow as much fuel as when they where new.
One of the reasons the saloon may have blown a piston could have been lack of fuel. | |

If it's that old I would be looking at changing it. I had a walbro on the hawkeye and that starting losing flow rate after 2 year then I had to replace it. | |
