Does your gauge still work properly?

OK, I havent looked to see if it's available, hopefully you'll find one.

But for what it's worth, if you Can't find a new fuel pump, don't fret. I'm the kind of guy who likes to buy OEMp parts...... but I have to admit I've had a few vehicles I've owned for a long time and when I went to replace the tanks (due to rust), I discovered a previous mechanic at some time in the distant past had installed a universal Bosch pump onto the old fuel pump assembly and these were vehicles I'd owned over 10 years. They ran fine. I only discovered when I went to replace the fuel pump. The Previous Mechanic had attached a new pump to the existing assembly and connected the lines with hose and clamps. It used to be a somewhat common thing when assemblies were really expensive. In my case (on pickups), the pumps never failed, but I did replace the assembly/pump when I had it out during a tank install.

Doing it that way is also a lot cheaper than buying a whole new assembly and it can run just as long. A universal (no-name) fuel pump is like $25, and a Bosch is like $70. The only problems come in when the gauge doesn't work, or the assembly is dangerously rusty on the outside (probably not an issue in TN), or something like a plastic vent is broken.

Hopefully you'll find a replacement, but if you don't, consider the above. 👍

Yeah I considered pulling it apart and replacing just the pump. I have the original assembly that I replaced like, a year prior before this new pump started going bad. Can't reuse it since it got damaged at some point, but was messing with it to see what sort've pump to replace with, how difficult it is to swap etc, and I'm not liking the odds. Have had to break multiple plastic clips holding it all together just to get to undoing the pump itself, and thus far I haven't even been able to get it out...
There is a listing on eBay for a pump out of a wrecked H3T that's tempting, not ideal, but it'd at least be *something* better then sub 30 psi til I can figure out something more permanent

Well now i'm just perplexed!

OEM:

Fuel pump ring:
GM Part # 22682111
ACDelco Part # G41

One of these maybe??

Interchange Part Number pump
MU1883, M10229, 67791, 69446, 19207847, 19207848, 19208880, 19208881, 19370390, 19370392
19426300, 19260080, 19256399, 19206830


Seems to be heading in this direction... 19206830
But cant find what makes this pump different from other pump listed above. Is the flow rate different? The dimensions or fitment?

Part# 19206830, m10224 is indeed now fully discontinued. I humbly submit that it is indeed.
Reason why I've asked for measurements as it may now be necessary to take those measurements and contact a company who specializes in gas, fuel delivery systems (i.e. such as Delphi, bosch) and request assistance with obtaining a pump which would be a close match in flow rate, size and other such features. Or start fabricating cobbling together your own add on external pump with flow rate capabilities... as suggested above.

I’m having the same issue right now no one can find a pump. AC Delco discontinued and the Bosch one doesn’t fit. Has anyone figured something out besides cannibalizing other pump?
