Could this be a earth issue? Ive bulked up the earths on my car and ring mained them all so not relying on chassis earth connections?

If that's the fuel pump resistor that used to sit underneath the air pump, Ive got one if you need it.

Im running an out of tank walboro style pump.

Jon can you confirm I don't need this? If so, its yours Paul if its any use.

The resistor is used to drop voltage supply to pump on low power, its not needed. Not sure of its function other than pump life tbh...

Far bit of black on them? Oil? Are you premixing?

Tan ideal, they seem to furr up with mileage like barnacles/ scale on ships hull...
Does not look like lean...theyd be white/ cracked from overheating.
Look ok apart from the blackness.
What ration premix...id be thinking no more than 150ml per full tank off super duper...as your still running omp.
