Stock Fuel Pump Connection Replacement?

This is going to be afar fetched idea ,

I dont know the connection is called


I'm trying to see if I can get a replacement for the stock Fuel pump connector , The flow connector , Not the electrical connector .


My car's PO Cut the stock intank fuel stock , where the pump connects to the tank cover / and replaced that with a hose THis was ok since the Walbro Pump had a little head to keep the hose from slipping off



Now the SARD pumo I replaced hte Walbro With . uses the OEM connector Type .

Now the problem is since it doesn't have the head It keeps slipping off . the pump

I'm wondering if there is any kind of replacement so I can buy a hose and use a fitting of some sort that connects to the fuel pump . to keep it from slipping off .

It may be possible to flare the pipe and fit a compression fitting onto the end so that you could run a fuel hose to the pump, but I did something else.

I don't think there's much you can do about the plastic pieces on the pump itself.

The stock pump has the same outlet design as the Walbro, both install with a plastic spacer, o-ring and pintle cap. If the PO cut the supply tube, you will need a replacement fuel pump assembly, however it does not sound like SARD is configured for a stock style installation.
