i had a new drake pump once. first, it leaked. i found the glass bowl was egg shaped and would get stuck in the pump body. fighting to get it off, it cracked the edge. when i tried to replace it with another bowl, it was an odd size. while fighting with all this i broke the poorly made bail, only to find it too is a different size than standard. give yours to someone you dont like and get a real ford pump rebuilt
