OHV Champ 6 with Carter fuel pump. The way these pumps are clocked, the outlet is about 30 degrees from perpendicular to the block, and a 90 degree brass fitting is needed to get the outlet pipe on. At least I see no other option.
Here's my problem: This is an original remanufactured pump ( ethanol safe) that works fine. I need a 90 degree brass fitting to get the outlet pipe connected. There is only one position where the outlet pipe fits, and either it's too loose and leaks, or gets so tight 180 degrees from there, that I am afraid I will crack the fuel pump if I go further. Who knows how many times these parts have gone together and come apart, wearing away each time.
What solutions can anyone offer?
