Fuel Pump Question

Has anyone had any luck with the new electronic fuel pump (from
MiniMania) for the 1098 Morris?  I replaced my SU pump with the
electronic model a few months ago, and I have had nothing but trouble
ever since.  It seems the pump is unable to keep up with the engine's
normal demand for fuel, and frequently experiences a loss of prime, or
vapor lock.  In cool weather, I am able to drive along pretty well; but
on a warm day, forget it.

I'd like to go back to the SU pump, frankly, but I haven't been able to
locate a point set for it.  The pump on my car is an older model, with a
single spring-steel fixed contact point.  It is that contact point which
is worn beyond its useful life.  Anyone know where I can get a
replacement point set?

Thanks!
