right since ive owned my new d'tub ive been wondering what on earth my old pump had done to it, it would continue revving right round to 5700 ish rpm and you wouldnt notice that it wasnt pulling anymore, what do you think has been done to it?

A stock pump will rev that far in first and second but there would be a significant drop in power. Sounds like it has been gov modded tbh

Bosch or Lucas...
If Lucas, it's an old style one that revs like f*ck when you turn it up.

Hmm....what throttle stop would this be? is it easy to remove? Ive turned the fuel up on my Lucas, making 18-19psi, but there is, as Dan! puts it, a significant drop in power at about 4.5k....

Its the screw/ bolt the throtal arm rests up against.
Don't remove it completly, and make sure the throtal works as it should. Also adjust the cable end on the arm so you actualy get full travel.

The screw on the throttle arm, pull it to full throttle with the engine off obviously and it'll hit a screw i you wind that out it can go further
Edit: Chris beat me
