632 Bobcat with Ford Industrial 1.6 motor model 2274E

Check at the auto parts stores. Older ford cars such as a pinto's fuel pump should work.
 
As i have posted before, the best long term solution is to add an electric pump to replace the OE mechanical pump. I have been using a Carter P 4070 for 10 years now. It will pump gasoline with ethanol content if that is all you can get .My machine sits for sometimes a month or two and the stability of using only ethanol free gas is worth it for me. Either make a block-off plate for the OE pump or retain the bare OE pump as a block-off.
If the fuel pump eccentric on the camshaft has worn to be practically round as mine is the electric pump is your best resort anyway.
The last two OE pumps I bought failed in a short time as the diaphragm material will dissolve in ethanol. If you find one it will be NOS and marked up considerably.

There may be some limited Pinto parts that will interchange with the Kent Industrial Ford, perhaps the pistons, but the Pinto I had is a very different engine with a belt driven overhead camshaft compared to the Kent push-rod motor.

I have a 642 with the Kent motor. Here is my cheat-sheet i penciled in the service manual... Hope it helps Note that some items, like the water pump are bobcat only. Buy a lot of my parts from Rock Auto.

When i purchased my 632 a few months back, we drove back 1.5 hrs home and it wouldn't run long enough to get it off the trailer. Turned out the previous owner didn't have a Flippin fuel filter on it. Look at the Pic of how much crap came out of the fuel pump.

I took it up to AutoZone, with the only knowledge that it was a 1.6L Ford out of a 71/72 Pinto, 71 Capri or a 79 Fiesta.

I don't remember the year, I think it was a 74 Pinto. But we found one that looked exactly the same. I ended up not using it as I got my pump and the carb cleaned out, I ran a filter between the pump and carb. If you really need it, I can go back up there and see if they can tell me the p/n we ordered.

I know that if you ever run out of fuel you will love having a electric fuel pump as you won't be wondering if you have enough battery to crank it until the carb fills you can listen to the change of the sound of the pump when the float closes.
