1930 Buick Model 60 Fuel Pump

[snosurf]

I trying to figure out the correct fuel pump.  The manual identifies it as a "AC Type B variable stroke diaphragm fuel pump".  The one on my car is similar to the drawing in the manual but the glass bowl is in a different position.  I'm having problems with the one that is on the car, and I'd like to get the correct one.  Is there a shop that has a huge assortment of fuel pumps, or anyone I should call?

My book shows that it takes an AC B-855400. The Model 50 takes the same one according to my book.

I can look at mine Monday and see if there is a part number, or I can post a picture.

I wasn’t able to take a picture on Monday. Sorry about that. I should be able to over the weekend.

Here’s some pictures. It looks like the part number on the top is 1527898. Hope this helps.
