Topic: 32 B fuel pump line routing


old buicks    -- 10-26-2017 @ 5:04 AM
  It's been a long time since I've worked on this car a several things in my mind are foggy to say the least. I have a rebuilt fuel pump and am wondering which opening the supply line from the take goes into? The one in line with the pan sides or the one that points directly at the right hand frame rail?

Thanks for the come back in advance.

  Both of my 2 restored pumps have the inlet pointing directly at the block (marked "IN") ,,, the outlet marked "AC" points directly to the rear of car. Not sure if this is correct but was that way before I restored them. Seems like not enough room between drain petcock and block to open said to drain bowl. ??? This could easily be corrected by turning top section of pump to a diff. position. ken ct 1-203-260-9780 ??????

  Sorry my pipeing was wrong should be inlet from tank is inline with the cam shaft lever BUT pointing to the right side frame rail. The outlet points directly towards the front of car. Have sinced fixed the 2 I have now mine are correct. Thanks for the question. ken ct
