Beatles65 Posted February 23, 2013 Report Posted February 23, 2013 The fuel pump on my 1946 Dodge Four Door Sedan was leaking pretty bad from I believe the weep hole. Is there a kit out there to rebuild the pump or a place that has good new fuel pumps? I saw the one on eBay for $139.00, but was wondering if there are any other places that are out there that could be competitive with that price. Thanks! From Denton, Nebraska. Andrew Kean Quote
Don Coatney Posted February 23, 2013 Report Posted February 23, 2013 If you do a forum search for fuel pump you will find many answeres to your questions. Rebuild kits are available and reasonably priced. Quote
busycoupe Posted February 23, 2013 Report Posted February 23, 2013 This question has come up several (many?) times in the past. A search for fuel pump should turn up lots of solutions. One place that I and many others have used is "Then and Now Automotive" in Weymouth, Ma. They will rebuild your pump using modern ethanol resistant parts. Or for about half the price, sell you a rebuild kit for the pump. Dave Quote
BobT-47P15 Posted February 23, 2013 Report Posted February 23, 2013 (edited) You might check with your everyday auto supply store.......they can often get certain parts new or rebuilt for our 40s cars......sometimes at reasonable prices. I know NAPA has some things, and O'Reilly has some, too. If they don't have something in stock, they can often get it from their warehouse in a couple days. I don't know about stores such as AutoZone, Pep Boys, etc.....as I usually deal with the two mentioned. Edited February 23, 2013 by BobT-47P15 Quote
Beatles65 Posted February 23, 2013 Author Report Posted February 23, 2013 Napa does offer a couple different fuel pumps, one for $45 and another without a price. These two are different then what I have. Does it matter what fuel pump you put on the car? Can it be different than the one on the car? Here is the one at Napa for $45 http://www.napaonline.com/Catalog/CatalogItemDetail.aspx?R=NFPM2090_0256314509 And the other one that doesnt have a price. http://www.napaonline.com/Catalog/CatalogItemDetail.aspx?R=AFP587_0252757443 Here is the one on Ebay, and it is very close to the one I have, but mine doesnt have the fuel bowl. http://www.ebay.com/itm/181069120949?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649 What do you think? Thanks! Quote
Don Coatney Posted February 23, 2013 Report Posted February 23, 2013 I would be careful buying one on ebay as it may have old rubber and todays gas will eat the old rubber up. Quote
