Re: [OMC-Boats] FWD: Fuel pump needed ASAP

For what it's worth I've had new NAPA fuel pump that fit's the 200 HP V8
Buick on ebay three times. Only one person watched it and no one bid. It is
a marine approved part if someone wants to cross reference and see if it
will fit it's still available. I would but my OMC service and parts manuals
are packed away while I'm changing storage area's.
