rebuilding AC fuel/vacuum pump

Posted by FPTGearhead On 2012/9/30 14:37:15

I am rebuilding the combo fuel/vacuum pump to my "38 Eight. Any tips or tricks on changing the vacuum-side diaphragm? Instructions say I need an arbor press to separate the two disks from the stem. Looks pretty straight forward but a little confidence building is needed. It appears that I have to slightly grind some of the stem that was mushroomed over. Any ideas? I assume the fuel pump side is very similar in it's rebuild...
Thanks.
