Anybody here use this made in China repro pump on a 914?? It has gotten good feedback so far (but only 17). I'm curious about the statement on the arrangements of the ports:
"nearest with electrical plug and silver cap is for fuel exit, the center one is for relief overpressure..." Isn't it the reverse on an original pump, or am I mistaken?? China Paul |

Dave (IMG:style_emoticons/default/slap.gif) we have had mixed results. Some of the stuff is very very good other stuff CRAP!!!! It however is cheap enough to try out first and if it doesn't work we have not spent that much money on it. China is now how Japan was after WWII. My Dad used to always comment about the "cheap jap junk" that flooded America. China will eventually catch up with the quality (and the resultant price!) At least we can make some unavailable 914 parts in the small quantities needed, reasonably |
