I know I had purchased a Facet pump just over a year ago, so I did a search and they are still around. I found it under Facet-Purolator. Their site showed 5 models and the names of a few dist. I was sure i'd bought it from Car Quest and they were on the list. Too many parts houses try to peddle the "cheap crap" ! Or maybe that's just what the demand is for.
I recently had a re-occuring fuel problem on a 50 year old IH dump truck. Finally figured out that the fuel pump wasn't the problem, I figured there must be a screen in the fuel tank. No screen !!, the drop tube into the tank was about 5/16 ID steel tube. It was almost plugged with rust / dirt. Cleaned that out with an old piece of speedo cable. The old truck has been going like the energizer bunny ever since ! KEN
 
Well, that solves it. Next time I go to the city I am going to find a Car Quest and get a pump. Not a big deal right now as the head gasket just went on that truck. When it rains it pours.

Thank you!!
