Mark L Posted May 13 Author Report Share Posted May 13 (edited) Two weeks ago I ordered the hose fitting from Myer's Studebaker Parts, and it was delivered on May 4. I installed it Friday evening May 10 and had a successful test drive. The problem has been fixed. Thank you for everyone's comments and information.

Avanti1963! Posted May 13 Report Share Posted May 13 Does anyone have a few good pictures of how the rebuild pieces are mounted inside an R2 fuel pump? In particular, the little tiny springs and round washers. What order do those go under those two little mushroom pieces? Also, how is the flat gasket between the two bottom housing pieces oriented? Which cavity is open and which is covered when the gasket is in place? I just rebuilt mine and it's not pumping. Not sure what I did wrong.

This is good help also: https://www.428cobrajet.org/how-to-fuel-pump To test: You can test it manually. Put the pump arm in a vise and pump. You can feel how it sucks from inlet and blows from the outlet the air. Edited June 30 by Leo B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
