original fuel pump.

[Allingerb]

Hi everyone. So my 65 fj45 has the mechanical fuel pump with the awesome primer lever. Pump unfortunately doesn't work and I've been running motor with an electronic pump. I'd really like to fix the original though. Does anyone know how to find a rebuild kit for the original pumps that have primer? Thanks alot.

That has the primer* my phone makes me seem so illiterate sometimes. :-(

We just did a rebuild on our old fuel pump. Found inspiration here:

rebuilding early fuel pump

I was able to buy a new Kyosan fuel pump and used the diaphragm and valves of that. It wasn't too hard to do. And I was lucky and didnt have to replace the shaft.
