fuel pump irregularity

["Dr. Carl Rubino" <ruvino@ripnet.com>]

A few days ago after stopping for coffee my pump started running constantly as
if the carbs were flooding (were not) or air was getting into the system-then
when I turned the key off and on again everything was fine. Has happened
several times since. Car runs fine even with excessive pumping although idling
is crap. Since there is no flooding and this happens even on a cool day are
the points sticking? is there a hole in the diaphram? or??????????
