Has anyone used a Stewart Warner vacuum tank instead of the original Kingston vacuum tank on their 28,29,30 U?
I am using A Stewart Warner. The Guy I got the car from took it off and installed an electric pump. The owner before him had a Stewart pump on it. Looking at pictures it had been on a long time. The Stewart pump am using now I got off Ebay at a real good deal. It was like new. Had some problems in the beginning with the pluming but I have it working and has never let me down. I have an electric vain pump under the floor just in case but never use it.
I have a Stewart Warner Vacuum pump that needs a rebuild that I planned to use if my Kingston pump failed to work properly. The SW Pump I have came off a 30U Plymouth. Model 210-L Patented Feb 14th. 1911. Probably not correct for factory originality ?? but definitely period for a good replacement part.
It should work just fine on the 29. Although the problem you are having might be the carburetor's float check valve.

Some one PM me about my fuel pump. When I responded to his email It didn't go through.
