The ones online are NPT. I had good luck with just buying a couple NPT to AN fittings like these. You’ll have to figure out the correct size.

Yeah I’ve found the AN8 fitting to suit but that would mean I’d have to make up two new fuel lines, I wanna avoid that if I can.The ones online are NPT. I had good luck with just buying a couple NPT to AN fittings like these. You’ll have to figure out the correct size.

The part number is stamped on the mounting flange. It is five letter number
starting with 40 for the cube pump.

Good luck
Facet quit making the 40108 pump. They don't want their pumps used in aircraft. See this post for the replacement pump and fittings.

Thanks guys, Tony in particular
Now I know what I can’t find one, Facet got scared I guess! I can see I’m gunna have to make up two new different length pipes……oh why can’t life be nice and easy, especially at my age!
I have 2, installed, but removed before using. Never saw gasoline or electricity.
I switched to the EFII system, which has its own pumps
Text me at 614 664 7851, if interested
Good Luck
Thanks for the offer but I’ve already bought a generic pump and getting new fuel lines made up. Anyway I’m from down under, not quite next door
