Hey eveyone...
Has anyone found a good price on a fuel pump lately? I'm in the market for a new one since I've recently had to switch to my spare. -L |

The Bosch's run about $240 to $400, depends on whether you need the 2-port or 3-port (the 2-port can be substituted for the 3-port with a little extra work).
If you're not opposed to aftermarket options check out Mallory, Walbro (GSL-393), or other inline pumps. As long as they can output at least 35 to 40 psi they should work fine. I use the Walbro and it cost about $130, works great. Will require a little extra work to get installed but nothing major. The Mallory looks suspiciously like the Walbro and is a bit more expensive, like $200. |

I've tried a couple Walbros on cars with carbs, and they worked OK but died way to soon and out of warranty.
My .02 is to spend the extra for the Bosch and it will last a long time. |

I just put in an MSD pump, cost, $95, avail at Summit. It's a bit noisy but it's a durable pump.

I got mine for $170 at High Performace House. I think there's a core charge too, dunno what that is because I gave mine back.

I just put an inline Pierburg in my Vanagon for less than the Bosch- supposedly used by the VW factory in their Vanagons. Mine is a 2.1L wasserboxer with the Digifant version of the Ljet so it's a match for a teener in volume, pressure and a remarkably similar system.
Go here Bus depot They have Bosch pumps on sale now for $159 and it looks like a match for the type 4 Bus engines Hmm Pierburg used to be cheaper than Bosch. Ken |
