The fuel pump on this engine is located on the front passenger side of the engine. It runs from an oblong lobe that is rotated by the crank and that moves the arm up and down to create the pressure.

It is different then an electric pump that is in the tank. This is a mechanical pump and has no electrical connections.

These are guides that are on modern pumps just in case someone visits this site that has one of these pumps and not the old style mechanical pumps.

Below you will find the process from the manual on how to replace this and pictures of what the pump looks like to help locate it.
