502, my fuel pump

If you compare the new walbro fuel pump with the stock fuel pump you will see that the diameter of the neck is smaller than stock (which isn't very good). I don't know why we didn't get the actual WALBRO replacement one that plugs right in (like those GST ppl do); perhaps it's not high flowing enough???

Anyhow, because of the smaller diameter I felt uneasy if I'd just attach the pump to the fuel line. SO this is what I did:

I ended up wrapping that neck with teflon tape until the diameter was the same as stock diameter. Then I put the spacer on it followed by the o ring. (These were the stock parts. I really don't know why we didn't get a new o-ring.) Oh also make sure that there is that metal cap that covers the valve of the neck. Mine popped off when I removed the plastic cap.


Push together as much, then fasten with worm clamp...

that's all I did...and my car seems to run fine (haven't installed boost yet...just loud loud pump!
