I tried a quick check of the archive but didn't find what I was looking for. Are there any write-ups on converting / re-plumbing the three port '74 fuel pump to the more common and available new and less costly two port variety?
I've got a '74 2.0 being put back into action after 12 years and the fuel pump seems to need an occasional hammer tap to at times to get the it woken and running. I'd welcome other suggestions. Is rebuilding viable with available parts (not too interested in nearly $400 for an AutoAtlanta rebuild)? Maybe take it off and run heavy concentration of fuel cleaner through it? Thanks in advance, Doug |

Thanks in advance, Doug Go to FLAPS and get an Airtex E8445 or equivalent. It is a two line pump that will replace the 3 line. Just remove the Y fitting with a straight through hose. |
