I finally got my 62 WM300 that I am doing a frame-up on running beautifully, for about 30 minutes, and then the 2nd NAPA fuel pump that I bought for it flew apart, and made tinging noises in the motor. The first pump I got from them never worked from the start, and the retainer pin slid out on this 2nd one on the part that rides on the cam. I haven't checked for damage to the motor yet but I have pulled the oil pan. I am extremely frustrated, because I am still in college, and live on a dairy farm so I have almost no time to work on it on the weekends, let alone this stupid stuff. I wanted to have it painted weeks ago before winter comes, but it has just been one thing right after another, and this fuel pump deal has put it over the top. Well, enough of my rant.
