Re: Fuel Pump

Well I got the fuel pump all back together. The rebuild kit came with a new arm pivit rod, and a new retainer pin. The only problem was that the new rod didnt have a notch in it for the pin to sit in.

So I just used the orignal rod as it was in good shape with no pitting.

I would have to give that rebuild kit a 3 out of 5 stars. Maybe the kit was a little more generic than I thought it was. But it just seemed like some of the parts were off.

My original diaphams were still functional but had lots of cracks in the rubber that I am sure would have failed pretty quickly with todays fuels.



So all in all, rebuilding a fuel pump is not a hard task. No special tools are required and as long as you pay attention to how you take your old one apart, they are very easy to put back together.
