Gerald, I recently replaced my fuel pump and had a hard time finding an exact match for some reason too. What I ended up doing is replacing it with an electric fuel pump. I left the old fuel pump bolted to my engine and mounted the electric fuel pump on the frame of my bus. It's a lot cheaper and will last much longer than any mechanical fuel pump you can buy. Pep Boys, Checker, and others sell a generic fuel pump called an EP-10 that sells for about $16. It makes a buzzing sound when it operates, so you'll have to mount it on the frame like I did. Otherwise, It'll drive you nuts. Not only will it last longer, It'll be a hell of a lot easier to replace next time. Sean Stueber
