Re: fuel pump wrap

Further update. First compression on all cylinders are 90 - 109 psi. That may be normal for a 52 year old engine.
Second temps on left center exhaust manifold went from 790 to 705 deg. Right center exhaust manifold went from 775 to 665 deg. Those numbers seem high but more balanced. I did richen up the carb 1/4 turn on the mixture screws.
Tomorrow I will flush the cooling system and see what happens. The saga continues.
