<div dir="ltr">Hello Jeff, appreciate the reply and good to hear from / virtually meet you! With Jim's replies to this thread as well, it's looking like we've got our answer for a nice rebuilt OE pump! This will be my route. I have what I believe to be a decent OE core that still works, but has many miles on it. So, I'll be talking to Jim about rebuilding it!<div><br></div><div>As for the pump turning off after a few seconds, my 70 Fastback (Fasty) does this. Initial fuel pressure is reached, then the pump clicks off till engine start and idle. It has an OE pump, relays, etc. All stock and set up correctly. I'm actually in the beginning of restoring the old Fasty</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks!</div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Wed, Jul 12, 2023 at 8:30 PM Jeff Palmer <<a href="mailto:w.jeff.palmer@icloud.com">w.jeff.palmer@icloud.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">Hi Jared. I have a 69 Notchback up in Canada (Winnipeg). I couldn’t find a fuel pump last year and ended up using a generic pump from Napa I believe. It seems to be working. <br>
<br>
Did you ever find a source for one? I couldn’t. <br>
<br>
Also, should the fuel pump turn off after a few seconds when the key is turned on (but not started?) My pump keeps running. <br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
Jeff<br>
