Guest 49LincolnCosmo Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Does anyone have any suggestions/pointers for reinstalling the fuel pump on a 60 Desoto with the 383 engine? Removing the old pump was easy, but I'm struggling to get the new one on with the limited space. Have ordered a shop manual and am waiting for that to arrive. Thanks!

61polara Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Bump the starter over. You may be on the high spot of the cam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vermontboy Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 Have you googled - "1960 DeSoto fuel pump" - everyone seems to have it - NAPA, Rock Auto, etc. It's showing up as an AFP267 which was used on a lot of Mopar V-8 engines of various displacement for a number of years.

Guest Bob Call Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 Under 1960 Dodge Polara w/383 Rock Auto also shows a Carter fuel pump for $5 more than the AirTex, but, it shows they only have 6 left in stock. Unless NAPA or Advance, et al, can beat the price I'd jump on the Carter right now. However, the Carter may be old stock and may not be compatible with ethanol gas.

Rusty_OToole Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 It would have to be pretty old, alcohol compatible fuel pumps, carbs, and fuel line have been the rule since 1985. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
