Is there a reasonable source for the spring that regulates fuel pressure in these pumps? During the past five years, I've had more than a dozen Tri-Power owners with flooding issues due to too much pressure. Several claimed they bought the low pressure pump from Ames Performance, and saw more than 8 psi at the carbs.

I don't believe there is a reliable source of Pontiac fuel pumps that deliver less than 6 psi.
