I posted on this problem about a year ago, but I got busy and just finally got back to working on the car. The fuel pump was leaking fuel into the oil. I tried a replacement from o'reilly's. It did the same thing. Called Fairborn, but never did get instructions as to how to order and pay for a tweaked mopar pump. I dropped the ball on that one, but did end up getting a rebuild kit for mine. I rebuilt the pump, but I'm not getting any suction. Took it apart to check that I got everything in there correctly (I did.) Reading on a thread here yesterday, I now realize that the pump I have is a Carter 970 and not the original Carter that the rebuild kit was for.
I did contact one of the members here to see about purchasing a tweaked or rebuilt original pump. I've also been thinking about tossing the mech and going with an electric only. This is the one I'm looking at http://www.oreillyauto.com/site/c/de...ic+-+universal . If I do go this way what's the best way to wire it?
My use for the car is just for fun...going to watch the local drags, a few car shows and drive-in night at the speedway.
