72 fuel pump

Post by mlj427 »

How’s everyone doing? My 72 Continental coupe has a leaking fuel pump. Rockauto has a Carter m6878, Delphi MF0054, or a Airtex 6878 all for close to the same price, any suggestions on which is currently best? I looked for a Motorcraft but didn’t see any.

Thanks
Mike

You might check a local store

Oreillys by me has the pump for under $30 with a lifetime warranty.
No shipping because I pick it up and I could have it tomorrow

BTW nice looking coupe!
I would like a triple white Continental Coupe to sit next to my triple black Mark III
Then I could play Good Lincoln Bad Lincoln

I believe the factory installed fuel pump was made by Carter. I bought the Carter from Rock Auto to have as a spare but it is made in Singapore.
