    I know they no longer make the combo fuel/vacuum pump with the glass bowl. So should I go with a Carter, Airtex, Crown or another brand I don't know about? Thanks!!

    Rebuild of an original is the best bet.

    There are a few nos on ebay with the glass bowl, as Howard said you might have to rebuild. I bought one without the bowl from oreilly with a coupon so far it has served me well. Walcks has the pumps too.

    Do remember who made the one you bought from O'Reilly?

    Sorry, I don't off hand. I can look at the box when I get off work in a few days. It's whatever what they have online. I ordered it and had it shipped, it was cheaper than buying it in the store.

    I got a glass bowl NOS from Mullins ( Mullins Jeep Parts ) for I think $75. I plan to rebuild it since its been sitting but have not had time so still using the vacuum dual one from Walcks.

    I went with the Carter dual action from ebay, seems to work well but I miss the glass bowl. Keeping the original to rebuild.
