Ordered a new fuel pump from EIS Supply last night for $189.00 - Apparently they now have new reproductions and not rebuilds. Does anyone have any experience with them?

This one, correct?

They also carry a 911/914-6 pump. I wonder who manufactures these new pumps?

Only curious, but is there a good reason to pay $150 more to get the third hose flange? You can buy a pretty good in-line Bosch pump with slightly higher flow and pressure that looks a lot like a late model OEM pump. We discussed it in some threads last fall. Early FI (like mine) you just T off the recirculating line into the return line -- no problems.

Maybe there's something I don't know. Or is it for car shows?

My car show rot! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif) So, it is not for the concours croud. I guess because I am a newbie and am pushing to get it running I am making mistakes. I hope for the money it is at least a fair product. They Shipped it next day so it is supposed to be here on Thursday. I will report back on what it is like with pictures.

If things carrying air fail, no big deal
Things carrying fuel or oil fail, big deal
Just my .02

It is pretty hard to sue China.

That pump went up to $100.
Unfortunately I didn't buy one for under $50 when I could....

I recently replaced my three prong pump with a new two prong Bosch fuel pump. I also relocated the pump to the firewall. It was not that hard. I got the new Bosch pump for less that $60 on Ebay. I guess I was lucky on the purchase because I have seen it priced over $150 elsewhere.

Hey, that stinks! Now $88 at my NAPA, one of those retailers who use "dynamic internet pricing." Between the Volvo, Mercedes, Type-3, Porsche people with D-jet, they must have sold a lot of those pumps recently. One member here opined it to be an OEM Ford part (See pic for #).

If you keep looking you can still get it for less. Flea bay, etc. It many not even say "Bosch,"on the box but the can, fittings and specs are identical. Chinese knock-off? Maybe, but since FP is external, R&R is not difficult and if that one breaks you won't be down for long. That being said, $190 is a median price point for that pump. Easy to find something like it for $300 or more; or, an in-line for a lot less. I think Bosch will even rebuilt your stock pump for around $250 + shipping to Deutschland.

I thought EIS was a Belgie-based exporter but Google provides a San Mateo, CA address. Either way, they've been around for a while and the pump in the catalog looks exactly like my old stock pump. I bet it will be great.

If it's Chinese, one tip off will be the ports are reversed with no markings on them.

Here is a simple, easy to find replacement.

Airtex Universal EFI Electric Fuel Pump

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/images.oreillyauto.com-1143-1330451383.1.jpg)

Airtex E8445 is the part number.

Inlet and outlet sizes are 5/16 so there is no adapters required.

I bought it at O'Reilley for 114.99. It has been running on Betty's L-Jet 74 for about 6 months. It works great, and is available at most FLAPS.

Considering the D-Jet and the L-Jet use the same fuel pump, I figure it will work fine with the D-Jet too.

EIS fuel pump came today. Not sure where it was made there was Zero markings on box, not even a label, and the pump only has EIS stamped on end. Also the polarity is marked on the connector, but the fuel pick ups are not labeled. Snowed on my project yesterday so I have to wait for the temperature to pick up before I will get under her an install. I have some pics for those interested.
