mallory electric fuel pump 140

[DEANs427]

Any one out there know of a rebuilder of the mallory 140 electric fuel pump?
the electric motor part of mine died last week end, I really like these pumps but are spendy.

In the fear of jinxing mine, I'm not sure how to answer LOL!!
 
I guess the motor portion is similar to a Holley.  I haven't looked at mine for years, but I know I used to work on my Holley about ever week(thus I put a Mallory on it over 20 yrs ago).

I'm guessing it just needs brushes and maybe the commutator cleaned up?  Since Holley bought them out, I'm not sure how well parts availability is?  I just googled the PDF for the 110/140 pump and all it shows is #14 is the motor.  The first page has service parts and they do show a brush kit as #3146.  Not sure if that is still available.

Other then removing the two screws on the top of the motor and slipping it apart, I doubt it is too hard to replace the brushes.

No help on a rebuilding company but a local guy who did Replica AC 427 Cobras bought 4 of them from me about 7 years ago. Maybe Check a AC Cobra Forum. Think they were original on some AC Cobra's.

opened my pump up, commutator worn way down, armature shorted and burnt black, looks like the pump parts are good, will save until I get a pump that runs but don't pump, make one out of 2.
put this pump on in 2012, used,  ran until now, great service I would say!
Thanks for responses..

They are good pumps, have one.  Sorry, not for sale.  I'd be surprised that they are even still available, since Holley owns them.  Maybe you'll run across a bargain on eBay.

Wow...I just did a quick google....$381 for just the pump!!!  Yowza!!  I think I had $140 for pump and bypass regulator way back when I bought mine new.

Guess I need to start trying to find a back up for the day I might need it.

And why is it that I have a gut feeling that a new pump won't last near as long as your old one?

I got about 11 years out of the first 140.  The one I have is maybe 6 years old - around $270 as I recall.  I run a 250 GPH Quick Fuel pump now, in preparation for running methanol.

I got worried, dug around on FB marketplace and found a vintage, still in plastic wrap 140 Mallory pump and filter.  I'm meeting the guy on the way to the track on Saturday.  I feel better with some kind of spare in the trailer.  I should get a diaphragm for the regulator also.
