I took the fuel pump off ,sent on Tuesday to Arthur Gould Rebuilters on Long Island got it back on Friday morning ,totally rebuilt back on the truck in the p.m. and running, took some cranking to get the fuel to the pump from the tank ( we cleaned the filter bowl out so the line was empty back to the tank. -

thanks for the help guys -
the fuel pump on my 54 mack fire pumper seems like it stopped working today. had fueled up 3weeks ago tried to start today and no go ,disconnected line to carb and no flow , someone recommended removing and send to a guy in N.Y. to rebuild ,any comments ,also cautioned on installing by in to get the lever in the right position or you can damage it.

that would be so sad to remove the fire body, it has to be saved as a fire truck. I already have a open cab 'L' mack ,no fun driving in the rain -

Frame paint
609albert replied to Willie dog's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
where do you purchase Frame Saver paint? -
I hope it wasn't the chromed type diamond plate (it would be harder to do). I would try a small area using a Brillo pad (has soap in it to lube area)if it is just regular alum. dp.
