    Took the vro fuel/oil pump apart and was considering a rebuild and deleting the oil side of the existing pump. So the rebuild kit costs @$155.00. A new non vro fuel pump costs $179.00. No brainer...supposed to be here tues. Can keep the motor running pumping the fuel bulb and it sounds so nice!!
