Frankly, I'm pretty irritated about the sudden, recurring issue. I wouldn't be surprised if something happened to the top hat or the pump because of age, but I'm just not sure since it drives fine otherwise.

I guess that just means it's time for a CJ Motorsports Road Race Pump kit
Similar situation as you when i first picked up my used Z....turned out the pump was hanging on by one piece so everytime i made a right turn the whole assembly was shifting toward the outside of the tank away from the gas
