Product Details

Sparta, distributed by Delphi, is positioned for earlier model vehicles where OE-style fit and fuel delivery performance are important. The PN8002 uses a mechanical pump design with a 0.375-inch inlet outside diameter, two mounting holes, and a threaded outlet configuration for service on classic carbureted systems. Its gas-only construction and standard replacement grade make it a practical choice for restoring fuel delivery on Chevrolet C10, Camaro, Nova, and related GM platforms.

This part cross-references Airtex Fuel Pumps 41216 and Carter M6626 for the same application.

Common Problems This Pump Can Address

• Hard starting caused by weak fuel delivery
• Fuel starvation under normal driving conditions
• Low fuel pressure in carbureted systems
• Intermittent stalling from an aging mechanical pump
• Restoration needs on classic Chevrolet and GMC trucks and cars

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm the vehicle uses a mechanical fuel pump before ordering. Match the inlet and outlet style, thread size, and mounting-hole layout to the original unit. Replace the gasket during installation, verify fuel line routing, and check for leaks after startup. Because this pump is used across many classic GM applications, verify exact year, make, and model details for Chevrolet C10, Camaro, Impala, Nova, and related vehicles before installation.
