<VV> Healthy pumps?

[Bryan Blackwell]

After thinking about this for a bit, it makes perfect sense - if you  
used the eccentric to drive the fuel pressure, then the pressure  
generated would easily be able to overcome the inlet needles if  
something got stuck (think jammed relief valve).  This way, the  
spring generates the pressure, and basically it can't ever go over  
whatever stiffness the spring has.  Slick.
