I am having a very specific issue here. Pump no longer holds pressure after shutdown. Original location, original three port pump. It still pumps great when running, but no longer holds pressure. Need to fix that and quick. Do I have to replace it or can it be repaired?

Well, the factory moved the pump up front under the tank. I would get the parts to do that move so you can access it from inside your frunk. PMB even moved my pump for my 1970 6 that way. I am sure that someone must have pointed out that the factory did this on 75 and 76 cars.
I remember that my 74 2.0 back in 1979 would stop working and just die in traffic and if I came back to it in 30 minutes it would run fine. What do you have to lose but a little time and money. Cool fuel is the idea. Best Bob B |
