Re: Repeatedly blown fuel pump?
Installed a Carter M3955 fuel pump but had to drill out mounting flange holes for the larger bolts. Much better pump than the Carter M4548 but was a very tight fit...less than 1/4" clearance between bottom of pump and engine. Now have float level control. The M4548 pressure was over the top due to poor quality control. Next project is the fuel tank level sending unit. Only ones available fail due to ethanol corrosion on the ultra-low-quality potentiometer. Marvel Mystery oil extends the life but failure is inevitable along with suction filter disintegration. That's what you get for trading off American Made for all things made in China. No nation is sovereign when it depends on foreign made for its sustenance. Tried to tell others what a mistake it was...but the profit margin dominated the market to our never-ending woe.
