With all this talk of electric fuel pumps. I have a SU Butec, SU part no.4080
is on the body. The box says AUA 25 ELEC PUMP 12V 1 X 1 K1333 M3
My question is, is this bugger worth anything, worth eBaying. Parts guys (and
curator chuck), if you will give me a ball park value, I am curious if it is
worth anything or not. Maybe I'll just keep it and use it on the Bugeye.

I think I asked this question before, but I forgot the answer. :^(
