Ooooh!  I forgot about those f*%#@g SU (Skinner Union) fuel
pumps and the grief they caused until I learned to put a Bendix
pump in the cars.  I always kept a Bendix conversion handy for
my friends, with all the fuel line adapters and setup for the stupid
British positive ground.

Should any one be interested, I have a full set of SU manuals
available.
