G'day,
Assuming that you don't have a way of checking the fuel pump output pressure I'd change it. They're not expensive and they're easy
to change. Plus if you buy one now the diaphragm will be compatible with ethanol fuel. You need one for a Toronado WITHOUT Air
Conditioning.
When you change it I'd suggest you install a metal fuel filter here:

Subject: [GMCnet] Stuck in Reedsport Oregon
I made it 20 miles South to Coos Bay Oregon got a new set of plug wires
changed fuel filter in front of carb, new coil, bought new distributor
cap but didn't seem to fit right going to store tomorrow to try another
ignition module I can do 55 but have to keep my foot in it on any Hill. my
brother bought me a new set of plugs but they missed on the cross reference
can't seem to find the right plugs the old ones don't look too bad.
Someone asked what was going on before this happened I actually had gone up
some long grades Towing my tracker.
The next morning something didn't seem right but drove 60 miles or so to a
campground stayed a few days then hit the road this morning and filled up
with gas that's when things got worse.
May have to limp back to San Jose will be calling Jim K again.
