Replacing fuel pump

[nelsontoddpa]

I need to replace my fuel pump in my '67 coronet 318. It looks pretty straight forward but I thought I'd ask if there are any hints or tips that would help during the replacement.

Thanks in advance-
Todd

I suppose you can roll the engine over until the arm in on the low side of the eccentric. That might aid with installation. At least you don't have that push rod like on the big blocks.

Hmmmmm.... I never thought about taking the engine out and putting it on an engine stand to make it 'easier'......:violent1:

Actually- I completed the job this afternoon. It was as easy as I had hoped and no issues came up.

Ethanol

Is the new pump "ethanol ready"? If so, I need to get one too.
