There is an old expression that says "the only thing wrong with
Lucas(British) electrics is American mechanics". NAPA??? Please go
to your British parts guy and get the OEM pump. I admit that last
year my 50 year old mechanical pump developed a pin hole leak and I
had to get a new one. For those on negative/positive earth electric
pumps - later cars I believe, there are OEM equivalents out there.
Linda, Sterling is at $1.60, there are plenty of UK suppliers (A Head
for Healeys, AH Spares, Moss UK, Brown & Gammons - to name only those
I have used and can recommend) that will supply your requirements.
NB: I chased my fuel pump issue for six months, tiny pin hole, took a
week to cause trouble but proof was it would not pump up once the
lines had been blown backwards.
Cheers,
Martyn
