Question: I'm looking to replace the diaphragm on my Flathead v8 1950 f1. So far.. i can't find anyone who sell a diaphragm.

On the side of the pump it says.. 8ba - 9416... then under that the #4

any ideas where I might find a diaphragm?

many thanks

Try Charlie NY. He has the good ones that will stand-up to the crummy gas. Plus, he's honest and knowledgeable as they come, and a regular on this forum. DD

You can probably find a new one inside a new pump at NAPA.

If it's an old 7RA pump, you will need a kit. The kit comes with most of the stuff that wears out. Sometimes the fulcrum pin or the rocker arm return spring will wear out too. I'd rather rebuild and old OEM 7RA-9350 pump than find out how long a Chinese pump will last. CharleyNY would be a good place to find a kit as mentioned. If you have a dual action (fuel/vacuum) then it gets more complicated.
