after the car runs for 15 minutes the pump sounds like its slowing down, fuel pressure stays at 7psi from my regulator. i am going to try and rebuild it, i see that holley sells two different rebuild kits, a rotor and vane kit and a check valve kit. should i buy both rebuild kits? i have never rebuilt a holley pump before, is it pretty simple or should i just buy another fuel pump? any help would be appreciated. i do run a relay to the pump, i think its just getting old, its 3 years old now.

Hey Tommy-
Feel free to correct me anyone, but your pump is a vane style & not a geerotor (such as a "black" Holley). If you are going to rebuild it, stick w/ the vane as it is compatable for a regulator. The Black Holley geerotor is internally regulated. Hope this helps. Scooter
