I'd say a new fuel pump is in order, or will be shortly when the "whack" fails to work. Safety Fast! Gordie Bird 62 MGA 80 MGB 86 Audi 4kq

I do believe it should work. I think the pressure has to be @ 3psi or less. The B I bought has a pressure regulator on it so I presume I have some sort of aftermarket pump. Check the MGA archives on

Are you sure it isn't a blocked filler cap (non-emissions systems) or blocked emissions hoses? Try removing the cap when it happens, with ignition still on, and see if the pump bursts into life again
