Yes. There are differences between the '68/'69 and the '70-'73, but they will all interchange. |

| The 68/69 pump is not worth putting in. They were a bad design, and that is why Bosch redesigned the pump. |

Would it work in a pinch?
Design wise, what is wrong?
Thank in advance! :D |

| Not sure what is wrong, but I can guess. The later pump's motor is bathed in the gas so it runs cooler, probably extending it's life. |

other than that, the only difference i can think of is that one of the outlet nipples faces a different direction than the other two. Russ? care to elaborate? |

| New style may have been cheaper to manufacturer, too--fewer parts, less assembly required. |

They were not cooled by the gas, and they were very problematic.
I have several of them in my junk box, that I took off because I could not trust them. They would quit when they got hot. |
