It can't get vapor lock in the pump until the fuel reaches 130 degrees and I can't get the fuel anywhere near that with the fuel return line. No 130, no vapor lock. What's the sense of looking for something that isn't going to happen. As far as testing I probly have another 25,000 on this 39 testing water pumps, thermostats, alternators and other products in the shop. I don't think I need to be told how tor run a test. G.M.
