A question that just comes to mind after viewing this image, Wouldn't the stock pump work just fine for a weber as long as it was pressure/flow regulated only? By this I mean instead of an electric pump mod, plus regulator and gauge? Since the stock pump has a return flow connection, wouldn't this guarantee that the pump would not continue to overload the carb or regulator with line pressure? or is return line used for something else?

Hello
I am about to do a weber install as well. I have a 1987 2.6L automatic 4x4. When I talked to the salesman at carbs.us he said these weber carbs will work with the standard pump.
I've never replaced a carb on a truck before. I have "fixed" carbs on motorcycles before. Mostly remove, clean, and clean out the jets to fix carbs which had been gunked up. I've done this on two motorcycles and even lawnmowers. Simple stuff really.
What appeals to me about the weber install on my vehicle is that mine is a california emissions model. It appears that due to missing lines, o2 sensor etc that my vehicle is a partial california setup already. I've read/heard that the weber is simple and does not use all these vacuum lines. This appeals to me. I'm curious though, is there anything I should read before I attempt this job?
Also how many vacuum lines will I lose? Ive heard that I can do away with the computer inside the engine compartment. Should I label all vacuum lines or just the ones which attach to the carb?
