Is it an idea to change the cam follower on the OE pump regularly?
You can buy uprated cam followers that last twice as long as standard

As Rich says check it every so often and see what the wear is like. It might be worth popping a new one in yours anyway if it's never been done.

Try explaining that to Mrs P.......
That could explain why Carl's run better on stage 2 with a HPFP??
I have certainly never changed it in the last 20k and at a guess neither has the previous owner! Perhaps a wise investment, is it a DIY job?
