hey,
I'm working on a 1952 international pick up and I'm trying to find a fuel pump for it. I've been looking on sites and most of them only go back to 1957. If anyone knew a good place to find a fuel pump for my pick up i'd a appreciate it.

Try the International dealer. My local dealer can still get parts for my brother in laws KB-3.

Also you have the Continental engine, no?
This engine was used in about a bazillion pieces of industrial and agricultural equipment long after your truck was made.
You may be able to get some help at a industrial (forklift) repair place or a tractor supply store.
Massey Ferguson (including Massey Harris) dealers have parts for Continental engines, although any brand of tractor dealer generally can get parts for any competing brand of tractor.

Unless you're trying to restore it to be competitively judged, I recommend an electric fuel pump, located close to the fuel tank. They're inexpensive and reliable, plus by turning on the key to the first click and letting the pump work for a few seconds before cranking the engine over, you reduce the wear on your starter and battery.

I am currently using electric fuel pumps on my two vehicles from the
'60's&have been very pleased.
