I just purchased a 1968 bronco and it has vacuum wipers. I am trying to find a fuel pump w/ vacuum pump on top. It has a 289 v8 and the gentleman l bought it from told me he looked everywhere and I haven't had any luck either. If f they can't be found is there another way to make them work? Maybe someone has created an aftermarket electric pump that could make them work? Does someone possibly have a expanded diagram of that pump. Could a 6 cylinder be modified to work? Would really like to keep my bronco like it came from the factory.

Keep watching eBay, they pop up every few months.
You could use manifold vacuum for now, but not as a permanent fix...

Hi, I use manifold vacuum for the wipers on my 66. I would make sure your wipers work before getting the fuel pump. I used replacement marine store electric boat wipers for years. I had my vacuum wipers rebuilt for nostalgia. I don't drive much in the rain anyway. Good luck
