Fuel pump options for 73 injected model Options

[maddhatter]

I recently picked up a 73 1.7 that had been stored inside for 20 years. The body is great as expected sitting inside, but the fuel pump does not work among other things and looking for a replacement I see that they are no longer made. Great! Can I retrofit a later model pump to fit my car? I thought the injection systems were pretty much the same all the way through the years, but the newer pumps look vastly different from my hunk of metal pump, mine having 3 hose connections and the newer ones only the typical two. Thanks in advance.

GPR & Pelican Parts both have the 7mm line. IIRC, NAPA did not have the High Pressure varient that we require. You'll need the Porsche style clamps anyway so order from one of those mentioned earlier. What the Cap't didn't tell you is this: when you get those parts and come back here for info, we're also going to have you relocate your fuel pump to the front. So yank the tank and find a vatter. But wait! There's more!! Then we're gonna have you replace the fuel lines in the tunnel. At which time some smart ass (and we have several) will mention that this is easier to do when the engine is out. Well if the engine is out, isn't this just the perfect opportunity to rebuild the tranny. And what self respecting (besides me) teener would rebuild a tranny with out a changing out their clutch. And if the tranny is out of the way then you must change over to 5 lug. Which will require a new set of bearings, also. About this time, one of Eric Shea's ads is going to wink at you and here comes UPS with your new calipers and slotted rotors. Furthermore, no 1.7 is worthy of PMB's performance package so I'd like to introduce you to Mr. Raby. Jake won't even speak to you unless you have your CC in hand and plan to be alive in the next year or so because that's how long the wait is. It is now 2 yr's later and what's left of the car you drove home is either in box's, a rust heap out back or at the painters. Jake called last week to say the engine is on the way and you just met Ron (Slits) who has convinced you that you need to buy the Shalom from him, pull the 6 out, install it in your car and then burn the Shalom.

Kent,

I don't know where you got the info on the NAPA pump, but it puts out 42 psig and I forget the GPH, but the numbers are sufficient. Bosch Number on the pump is 0 580 464 109. Actually listed for a Ford, but other than the electrical connectors being different, it is no different than the '75 - '76 style pump for $175.

And that is the Schlitzalom.

Found the info:

Part Number: BSH N69133
Product Line: Bosch

Fuel Pump Fitting Size[s] : Electric Fuel Pump
Fuel Pump Gallons Per Hour : 22.45
Fuel Pump Pressure Rating : 45 PSI

Not the Fuel pump. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chair.gif) I was talking about the metric sized fuel hose that is rated for 50psi.IIRC they only carried carb rated metric hose. As far as that pump goes, I'm getting me one at that price. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smoke.gif)
