Re: [Amc-list] 232/258 fuel pump on ebay

[Glen Hoag <hoag@xxxxxx>]

There were differences, but the aftermarket seems to have 
standardized on one type, which is probably the high volume 
pump.  See the part number change in '76 for 2 bbl carbs in the AMC 
part number listing.  This may cause issues in applications without a 
return line.  I had to replace the pump in my daily driver recently; 
I should check the pressure on mine.  I may need to add a regulator.
