289 fuel pump

[barney44]

Does anyone have pictures of the correct fuel pump on a 66 289? I have two of them and both are screwed together bodies but are different configurations. One has 8 screws and a pod with 2 vacuum ports straight up and the other has 10 screws with no pod on top. Also are there rebuild kits available for these pumps.

It would have a vacuum pump on top for the vacuum wipers.

You have one OEM pump and one aftermarket one. I believe the originals from Ford are the 8 screw versions.

I don't know about the rebuild kit being available for purchase, but there are rebuilders out there that offer the service. Perhaps they'd sell a kit.

Heres a pic of my fuel pump off my 68 289. 8 screws on the bottom and 10 on top! It's works but leaks. I think I can just make some new gaskets for it hope this helps

66 fuel pump

Let me see if I can clear this up. The Original 289 vacuum fuel pump will have CARTER on the side of it. It will have 10 screws on the top and 8 on the bottom. It will also have "Made in the USA" on it. If you can find this one it is the "Holy grail". The Ford replacement pump will have 10 screws on the top and 8 on the bottom. Typically it will have "made in Canada" on it. The aftermarket pump (napa, kragen, o'reilly etc) would have 8 screws on the top and 8 on the bottom; All three are obsolete.

Seems like a year or so ago you could still get them at Napa and even Rockauto had them listed... My Napa even has regular Bronco wiper blades on the shelf, or did about 3 years ago.

Then and now offers rebuild kits but I can not find the model number on my pump. Does anyone know the model number on my pump?

Call them and describe what you have and the use and they will be familiar with the kit....

I will tomorrow for sure, the only lettering I can find on this thing is MAN and WIPER LOL no numbering what so ever! I thought if someone might know that would be an additional help! thanks mark!

68 fuel pump

I have a 1968 V8 and mine just started spitting fuel out of the side under the top. Has anyone had any luck with the rebuilders? I contacted EGGE but want to see if anyone had used them before.

Just to add to the confusion, my '68 pump, has an aluminum tag stamped AC K9 40621 over MADE IN USA cast in the bottom cover. 8 screws on the top 10 screws on the bottom. An OE '68 pump? It looks identical to Mark's 2 photos in the right side of his #5 post. Mine differs only in the fact that the cover has MADE IN USA instead of MADE IN CANADA cast on it.

I just took mine off and it's definitely a Carter.

Then and Now in Ma has rebuild kits....just rebuilt mine last week

The fuel pump on my 68 appears to be the same as described by jckkys. Eight screws at the top, ten on the bottom. Stamped Made in USA, also stamped with "WIPER" between the vac ports. I have the maintenance records on mine since it was new. It appears that the fuel pump in my possession is a replacement from 1988. I added a couple of pictures along with a pic of the maintenance log showing the part number and price . The picture of the bottom is not great, but there are definitely 10 screws. So, no holy grail for me, but hopefully a rebuildable Made In the USA pump.

I have a brand new version of that pump
