fuel pump



Title:
Hi,
Since two days i have again a fuel pump problem. First i must say that i use unleaded fuel (which is a little agressive in France ..) since 3 years
Two years ago i change my pump because the "old" couldn't supply enough fuel when i floored the car. I bought a NOS pump on ebay, installed it and it works well....until last week-end ! On highway when the road climb i was out of fuel if i wanted to keep a 70 mph speed. The only solution was to release a little the gas pedal and not try to climb at more than 55 mph. On flat road no problem to run at 70 or 75 mph.
Note that i took a look at the fuel filter, no problem ..

So here are my questions:
- i'll install an electric "Holley red" fuel pump i bought for spare last year. Is there some problem with unleaded gas with this type of pump ?
- Where could i find a fuel pump kit for unleaded gas ? I've now two pumps to repair ...
