If the 87 car hasn't been converted to carb, it's likely still a Speed Density EFI system which uses the high-pressure (40 psi) electric in-tank pump.

at least you did not say, "only if Mrs......."

i know this is not true. But for levity, i thought you might make a humerous (though far from true) comment like that.
