The only device that has irrevocably stopped me (and most of the people I know) on the roadside many times in 43 years of driving; even "new", electronic ones out of the box from our much vaunted SU carb people do not work or fail in a week.

They have no place on a CMP or any other vehicle for that matter and are debatably useful for hand grenade practice only. In the grand scale of usefulness the SU fuel pump runs a poor second to a fart in a colander.
