I am about to replace the mechanical fuel pump on my '73 Satellite Sebring Plus with the 318 engine.
Is there anything special I should keep an eye out for?
If my research is correct, the 318 does not have a push rod for the fuel pump, right? There is an eccentric on the cam shaft that is offset which activates the lever on the pump.
Should be a fairly simple installation. Remove lines, remove pump, install new pump, reinstall lines. Of course more details to it than that, but that is the general idea, right?
Thanks.
 
Its pretty straightforward, you may have to rotate the engine by hand to get the eccentric around to allow the pump to slide in, other than that all fairly easy.
