I had a brand new one from the mid 90's . Lost pressure, replaced it with a new one. It wore the bottom plate in 3 months, the next one leaked, and the next one replaced under warrantee wore another plate out and sent metal through my whole fuel system and carb. I wouldn't run one of those pumps on a porta John service truck. If you have to run that type of fuel system buy a Holley or Summit race black pump.
Aermotive or Magna fuel is the only way to go, but they are not in everybody's budget.
