Ken,

The downside to installing an electric pump to feed the mechanical pump is that if the diaphragm in the mechanical pump fails you
can pump the crankcase full of fuel and destroy the engine.

I bought this pump because I noticed that the housing came apart.

I am not interested in rebuilding it.

I want to disassemble it and see if it is possible to seal the fuel off from the crankcase should the diaphragm fail.

Regards,

And where have you located the fuel pump rebuild kit? Been at least 50 years since I was able to buy one of those -- which were
then readily available at Western Auto stores, or 'most anywhere else.. :-)
