My fuel pump was a pain to get out because of the power steering pump which i had to remove. The fuel pump cost like $15.00. Of course the $2.00 fuel filter. I had a hard time matching mine up so I pulled the old one and showed the local parts store what i needed. Oh and I have the 460 BB.

Yup replace the filter when you replace the pump and Napa might not be the cheapest around. I got mine from Advanced, in stock and cheap. I love old trucks my brother in laws fuel pump for his newer ford truck was around $130.00.

And you still aren't sure about being proud to own an older ford, then call Napa and price a fuel pump for a 99 Dodge 1/2 ton with a 318!!! Think you are broke now!?

you might also want to check your oil level too, it might be a little high, sometimes these will pump fuel into the crankcase which dilutes the oil and is a VERY bad thing. smell the oil too if it smells like gas do NOT drive it until it's changed, well unless with that new fuel pump you want a new engine too.
