Fuel pump. Is there a difference??????
« on: April 10, 2013, 01:29:03 PM »
Is there a difference between a 1965 401 fuel pump and a 1966 401 fuel pump? Non A/C

Thanks Dave :icon_scratch:

They look different.
The '66 pump has a crimped-on bottom half, while the '65 pump is held together with screws, and is easily rebuildable.

The '65 replacement pump has the inlet pointed to the right as opposed to the original which came straight down.
