RE: 318 Poly Fuel pump

Thanks – the fuel filter is easy access too. Never have really flushed the tank. It had half a tank when I got in from sitting 20 years. Drained and flushed fresh gas thru is all. Fuel line also original. I know you can get stainless pre-formed lines for the sedans. Wagon has tank on the side so a little different. Not sure what is involved in dropping it. I always fill at half a tank – many because that’s when the gage says empty. LOL

Don't forget to check the fuel filter. They can get clogged. Oh yes and I had debris in my tank once which clogged the pick up every time I filled it with gas which stirred up the junk inside.

Are there many choices when it comes to stock fuel pumps? Seems like I remember having a bit of a challenge finding the generic stock pump, but not seeing the brand listed or when I bought it in my notes. Had to of been new just a couple years and few thousand miles ago.......... Can they fail this soon?

I do see an Edelbrock #1720 listed on the Autozone sight as fitting the 318 Poly. Anyone running that unit?

Pulled her out this morning and she fired right up as always, then slowly died. Seems more like fuel starvation than loss of spark. Would not fire at all afterwards............... Need to look into it this afternoon – but thinking plugged fuel line or bad fuel pump.......

Last time we drove her was to mini golf 9 days ago.
