I have a 72 v.W. Type 111 fastback f.I. I took the fuel pump apart and cleaned it, runs good but doesn't pump gas. Any ideas? Also do they sell rebuild kits for it?

I've got one idea, remove the fuel pump again, and make sure you did not damage it putting it back together and installing it those fuel pumps are not very expensive I would just replaced it.

Holey $hit.I would've got you a diaphragm for $12.00 Dollars, and if not I would have made you one from a inter tube, they don't call me MacGyver for nothing. Well I hope everything is okay, if you have any more issues let me know.
