1976 Evinrude 85HP

I'm doing the Carbs and Fuel pump. (Clean/Rebuild)

Do I need to buy a whole brand new pump or is there a rebuild kit for it like other pumps?
If I have to buy the whole pump, does anyone know where to go for the best price? $100 is too steep.


Fuel pump's Part# 0438559


Thanks,
DamianJP

That fuel pump looks very similar to mine, and I have rebuilt mine with a $12 kit. Funny thing is that I cant find a rebuild kit for yours, just the whole fuel pump. Have a look at this.
Your motor
Johnson Fuel Pump Parts for 1976 85hp 85EL76D Outboard Motor
My motor
Evinrude Fuel Pump Parts for 1984 75hp E75TLCRD Outboard Motor

Does anyone know if the pumps are similar? Can the rebuild kit from the 75HP be used on the 85HP?

I confirmed, same fuel pump, as they are cross referenced. The part number for the rebuild kit is 0393103. It's about $13. Simple rebuild.

Usually a fuel pump kit is nothing more then a diaphragm and a few gaskets. There really isn't much to one. BUT, the diaphragm is so important to change. It is the heart of the pump.

The 393103 pump rebuild kit is for 78 thru 83 engines. It does not apply to older engines. The 76 part number pumps are not the same part number as the 78 pumps.

I think you have the "old" or original style fuel pump. This kit is for the newer fuel pump. There is a chance that yours has been updated or converted. Could you send a picture of the fuel pump that is on your motor? EMD is a really reputable member, so I want him to give us a final chime in because there is a good chance that this kit will not work for you.

Best of my knowledge there are basically three different kits available. One of them will fit your pump. Which one? I ain't exactly sure. Just went through this with my '83 140.

I'd bring the pump body, or an old gasket if you can save one, to an outfit that stocks the kits & match it up.

If your fuel pump looks like this- fuel pump.jpg , then 393103 wont work, you need omc# 0777774. The pumps are similar but look at the top where they taper, 393103 is different.

View attachment 202608The pumps are similar but look at the top where they taper, 393103 is different.
Correct. The pump body & bolt spacing are different at that end.

Another way to tell is look at the gasket sticking out on the left side of the pump. Does it have 2 tits or 3? And/or measure the bolt spacing.
