The car is a 1971 that I just purchased from the original owner. Sat for several years, father / son project. We have gone through the systems; cleaned the gas tank; blown out the fuel lines; changed the tank lines and several others that were suspect.
After going through pre-start up procedures, we connected everything up with fresh fuel. The car started pretty quickly but I noticed fuel started leaking at the pump. My inspection revealed fuel is sealed around the pump fittings, but fuel is leaking from the pump itself, in the area of the electric connector. New pumps seem to be 400 bucks for a "3 port" item. Is there a work around with a less expensive pump, ie., a single port? Thank you for the knowledge here in this community, I could not have learned all I have without reading all the wisdom. Photo of the car attached...hopefully.  |
