Fuel pump fitting
Converting from electric back to mechanical but having a heck of a time finding the correct size fitting for the outlet. Anyone know correct size?

Depending on which pump you have it could be 1/8" NPT, 1/4" NPT, 1/4" flare, or maybe even 3/8" flare.... NPT= National Pipe Thread. LockDoc

Are you looking for the flare fitting or the adaptor to the pump? Take the pump to the auto parts store and match up a fitting. |

Re: Fuel pump fitting
5/8"-18 inverted flare nut for a 3/8" line, would be my guess.

Re: Fuel pump fitting
Find a parts truck (Wrecking Yard) and work from there!

Re: Fuel pump fitting
Just went through this exercise, as mentioned the 5/8 inverted flare to the pump side. I went to a braided line so used that adapter to -6AN
