Fuel Pump Issues

[Darrell S]

How much lift should the fuel pump pushrod have? Have a Charley NY pump that was working but won't pull enough to fill the bowl now. Got a new one from 3rd Gen. and new pushrod it won't pull either. So, looking for the problem.

Also found that the threads that hold the pump to the stand are just about gone. This is a Canadian car with aluminum manifold and fuel pump stand. Does anyone make a new stand or are new ones available? This is a 48 car with original engine.
