I've got a new pump and want to replace the old one.
My problem: I can't disconnect fuel line from the pump and/or from the carburetor. What ever I tried I only stripping nuts more
Please help me!

 

Use a line wrench if you have it, usually works. If you still can't get it off, vise grips and bend up some new stuff. I had to replace it on all my trucks due to rounded off fittings.

 

Looks like this is the only way
Any tips on how to do that?

 

I've always called 'em Flare Nut Wrenches:



Craftsman

 

I bough a set of three flare ones from O'raelly - easer it's to late or they are poor quality and making the same mess

 

I have a set of craftsman wrenches and they work good if they are not too tight, otherwise the wrench spreads and slips around the nut.

Keep the old line in as good of shape as possible and you can reproduce it and keep the factory routing. Just take your time.

OR, if there's room, cut the flare off and install a new nut and re-flare.

Usually work good for me, just have trouble keeping my son from using them as regular open ends.

 

the tubing wrenches are your only chance...and yeah, even with those you won't get them all off cleanly on a flare nut that's been on there for 30+ years.

 

...and has been jacked up and rounded off with the wrong wrenches.

 

I can't get it out
What's my other options? Is it possible to find it new?
I checked local JYs, they only have v8...

 

You can probably get a new fuel pump and a new length of fuel line with the flare fittings already installed from a parts store.

But, you will have to bend it to fit your needs.

 

if your flare nuts are that messed up, you will likely need to replace them anyway. I've had to do this, among most on here probably, and just cut them and replaced with new.

 

I had the same issue, the fittings are so soft they'll round of even with the flare wrenches. I had to use an adjustable pipe wrench, the grip increases with the more torque you put on it. It'll chew up the fittings but should get them off, mine were solid at the carb and the pump.

 

It wasn't easy, but I did it! I bought two 30" fuel lines at O'really and bent it with cheap HF tool. I messed up one line, cheap took needs some practice.
Check out the result! It's not exactly the original, but works well

 

Bended?
