Electric Fuel Priming Pump Suggestions

[Ontherun]

Happy Monday folks!

I may need to replace the electric fuel priming pump on my port engine.

The current one is a Flojet 24v in the 2100 series( the label is faded so I can t make out the full model number).
I have been looking around a little and none of the Flojet pumps i see seem to be rated for diesel. This seems to be the closest to what is there now. https://www.grainger.com/product/FLOJET-Diaphragm-Pump-Electric-10H913


Wondering if anyone has a suggestion / recommendation on a new one (hopefully with a model number )

Any assistance would be super helpful and appreciated.

I would prefer to stay aweigh from any pump using plastic or synthetic materials.
Were still using Walbro and Oberdorfer for us and our customers.

Walbros are pretty common for priming pumps. Here is the ones I use:

Only went up 60% since I bought it 18 months ago from the same company. Inflation, What inflation?

+1 on Walbro pumps - just make sure you pay close attention to the connector specification - I remember the thread type being a bit obscure. Easy to install correctly, just don't ignore thread types or air leaks will ensue.

+2 on the Walbro just replaced a leaker myself. I believe it was a standard 1/4 thread.

Excellent - noted, I will make sure to be attentive to the threads! Thank you!
