If you re-read my page on my site, I said that Jeff micro-polished the pump bodies for me and I rebuilt them on my bench. That is where all of the pictures came from.

I also had Jeff Palya at Micropolishing, LLC do some for me a few years ago. That's just added bling and not required for a normal rebuild.

I must have got my signals crossed. I just talked to Jeff at Advance Distributors and he is at Road America as were talking. I guess he only does distributors but mentioned he polished some fuel pump bodies for a few guys over the years. He told me that the Roadster Factory had the rebuild kits with the shaft seal too. So I'll try both places Thursday. Thanks!

Jeff Schlemmer is a god to the ignition system in our English cars. There is absolutely NO other reason to use anything other than a Jeff Schlemmer distributor.

If you are nice, I'm sure he would polish up your fuel pump or carb parts although he does not rebuild them. He has a special machine to clean and polish all the distributors.
 
Hear is what I did. Due to some recent contractor changes around the house (too hot to work) I only had this weekend to fix the car so I went back to the electrical fuel pump. However this time I installed a oil pressure shut off switch that came from NAPA for only $8. Backed out the T connector and got an X connector. Made all the connections for the axillary oil line to the head, new oil pressure switch for the dummy light and the new 2 pole switch for the cut off to the pump. So far works great. The only thing I didn't figure in was a roll over. Just hope the engine cuts off quickly!!

Hi guys - know this is an old thread but thought I'd just comment that my two year old and maybe 400 total mile reproduction fuel pump from one of the big 3 failed.

Yet more evidence that a rebuild is a better way to go...
