Hunt down and find yourself a funtioning MPS (manifold pressure sender) it is the most expensive part and it fails after 30 plus years.

The rest is still easy enough to get.

At every swap meet I can usually find an MPS for $5-20. I bring my Mityvac and test it on the spot.

rebuilt...

the Bret Instruments ones?

b

Brett Instruments no longer exists....Don sold out to Fuel Injection Corporation...FIC rebuilds the units....my cost according to the president of FIC is $225 with a good core. He indicated they were selling them via internet for $275. I have never looked to confirm this.

I know that PP doesn't handle them because of warranty issues...mainly 30+ year old diaphrams that can fail even though the unit is "rebuilt". No one makes the diaphrams and no one seems to be interested in the investment required to make them for the limited market they have.

There are others that will set one up for you, as long as the diaphrams are good. Geoff Bleyseng is probably the best one to go to.

I can get them rebuilt, and again, have to supply a good core (diaphrams), but I am twice the price of Geoff.
