I ordered my Walbro pumps for $119 each. I ordered the fittings Rusty suggested below. Everything has showed up and guess what, I've got more questions. :) First, on the pumps, it looks like the fittings seal by crushing an aluminum washer. Would it be ok to put fuel lube on the fitting also? I don't think fuel lube will hurt, but I also don't expect it will help either. The seal is made by the crush washer, and not the threads. ------=_NextPart_000_0051_01C481FD.C71EA5C0 Content-Type: text/html; charset="Windows-1252" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Message
