This subject reminds of a piece of art I created lately.   For those that
can appreciate the quirkiness of pre-war British Lucas (or pre 2004 for that
matter)  - and Vanagon engineering wonders - you will appreciate this.   For
some ungodly reason I decided to assimilate a Pre-War Lucas fuel pump with
an 84 Vanagon Air intake unit.  I wondered - would it take off.  The result
was out of this world and is featured on the home page of my website.

The Borg could not have done better.

Taping the pump makes it work again for a while.  The whiles keep getting
shorter and shorter till that doesn't work.  So maybe internal screen in the
pump is getting clogged?
