Default New Fuel Pumps

I contacted the PO of my 90' car and the fuel pumps have never been changed. I am thinking I should replace them as a preventive measure.

I believe I will use the Delphi FE0039 pumps unless someone knows of a reason why I should not.

I wanted to ask if there is anything else you would recommend replacing while I am making the pump swap.

Thanks for sharing your wisdom.

I switched to single pump after I bought the billet Y connector from Carter @ CT Machining. This replaces the brittle plastic Y that will crack and leak in time. You can do a search on the forum for more info. Image1659836988.362480.jpg

$75 shipped in US.

Craig, do you have more than one of the Y fittings? Is that something you put together yourself or can it be purchased?

Carter makes the "Y" fittings. He is here on the forum as Carter200.

Pics don't do justice to it. It's a beautiful piece. Carter does amazing work.

Sorry, I guess you should have been given first dibs as a reply to your inquiry. As mentioned, Carter sells them here or email him at: ctmachining@gmail.com

As Matt mentioned I would go with the single fuel pump with stainless housing and all brand new parts. I just assumed you were trying to keep it original.

You may want to consider the complete plug n play single fuel pump conversion kit one of our fellow owners offers.
It's nice, easy to install and eliminates most the issues the dual pump design has.

If you consider 2 new Delphi pumps, socks, Y adapter, submersible fuel lines and new clamps the difference isn't too big.
