Part needed

I have a big need for a part. The vacuum fuel assist is broken. The hose attached to it was bumped and the vaccuum line broke off. It is pot metal so it will not weld very easy. Any help on locating this part would be a great help.
Thanks

If it is a 614 it doesn't have a vacuum tank. He may need a fuel pump.

Can you post pictures of the broken part? It would help. Sounds like you have a broken fuel pump casting.

Gordon- Wouldn't the main body casting of our fuel pumps be common, just the actuating arm be specific to the 22A? In case he can't find the whole pump? Ross

Re: Part needed

Ross:
You are absolutely right. Many of the pump bodies are the same, as long as they have the same hole pattern for the diaphraghm. Some of the bodies are slightly different in the valving, but this doesn't always make a difference. Many of the English cars were using this same pump up into the sixties. There are several tractors which also use the same pump.

Hi All....

F-12 & F-14 Farmall tractors use the exact same pump.

They bolt right up to the 22A motor. Rebuilt pumps and kits are available from the Fordson House in Michigan.

See Y'all in Vancouver......

Hi Steve,
I live only 20 miles from Raleigh. Did not see you listed in 2011 Roster. I had a 30 614 Sedan. Give me a call at 919-989-9603. Will see if I have what you may need.
