So I had replaced all the old frayed fuel lines under my '74 2.0 since they were starting to leak. Now that I have finished, (bitch of a job under that RH side) the electric fuel pump has started seeping fuel from the electrical connect terminal area.
This original style pump looks to be a sealed unit and the only replacement option I have found is a rebuilt from Auto Atlanta @ $400 exchange. There are other elect pumps out there for less but are designated for carb units. I still have the D-jet system in place and working well so I am not interested in converting to carbs. Anybody out there know of a less-expensive option? |

You will not need it. Just return back to the fuel tank. I made change from 3 to 2 four years ago. Also moved pump to firewall too. Much cooler there plus easier to change the fuel filter too. You will need NAPA 2374. Attached image(s)

Could you diagram it from supply through each connection and back to the return ? Some of it is not visible in the pictures. Looks simple and a great update. Great job. Thank you Rory |
