I found this pump to installing in my FGT.
Made in england with hand primer.
Do you know what vehicle it belongs to?
It will work correctly in CMP Flathead?
Change the position of inlet and outle of fuel....

Mariano, it is for Ford V8. It is a Brit type. The diaphragm is probably not suitable for modern fuel.

Thanks Lynn
Fuel pressure in this pump same for Canadian CMP flathead?

Delivery pressure is dictated by the spring under the diaphragm. It will be the same and in the realms of 2.5 to 3.0 psi. Put a modern diaphragm in it to cope with the high aromatic modern fuel.

And be aware that a British AC pump has a different diaphragm spindle than a North American AC pump. Difference is the British one has two notches in the spindle where it fits to the lever where as a US one has a slot in the spindle so it hooks over the lever. I usually get a modern kit for a Land Rover Series 3 to get the correct diaphragm.

I keep collecting fuel pumps. Another one found. Seems to be the best for my Flathead
