Best M38A1 Fuel Pump Rebuild Kit?

Post by Madriver1968 »

Howdy all,

I just picked up an old M38A1 fuel pump that's in pretty good shape, but it needs a rebuild. Can anyone recommend a source for a really good rebuild kit?

Thanks!

Make sure you are ready to give them this 4 digit part number.

And be sure and send them photos of the diaphragms. There are
two different plunger types on the diaphragms. One is re tangular
in shape and one is shaped like an arrow.

Brian is referring to the diaphragm PULL RODS not the diaphragm itself. They will ask you about these if the kit they use to service 4 digit number you gave them comes with a choice.
