Hey Buick guys, new guy here and right out of the gate need some input. I have a 1970 Buick Skylark Custom Convertible 350 4brl numbers matching engine, transmission. We’ve had the car about 5 years now and have enjoyed 4 trips to Cruising the Coast, we skipped this year. The fuel pump has gone out on it and I’m having trouble finding the right replacement. To begin with I went to auto parts store asked for the fuel pump for the 1970 Buick 350 with air conditioning, it has been in the trunk for 4 month. I went to Chang it out and the new pump had only nipple to connect line from gas tank, the one I took off had two nipples and I do have two lines coming from the gas tank. The other issue is that the old pump has one bolt hole (one closest to the front) that is threaded, the back hole is not, and the bolts are two different sizes. There is also a plate about 2” long on the top of the arm that goes in the block on the old one, new one does not. Can anyone tell me what’s going on here? Oh and the parts store said the old one is for a 72???
