 |
|
I've been looking for a new fuel pump lately for my new 77 yellow 924 that i bought from a fellow board member. They are like 200 some dollars US. Does anyone know of any universal fuel pumps off of other cars that are cheaper and run the same pressure with same voltage under 15 amps? Any help would be appreciated. Also, am I correct that they run at around 75 PSI? my book says 4.5-5.5 bar.

I've been told a fuel pump from a Ford Escort RS will do... I don't know about the price of those and I'm not sure if it has all the same specs, but you could try to find out

| Our Very Own 924.org Tech Section wrote: | | Pierburg, a subsidiary of Hella, makes replacement fuel pumps. The most commonly used external fuel pump on the 924 is 911.608.102.00, also used on the 77-80 911. The Pierburg replacement pump costs less new than the rebuilt Bosch pumps. It works extremely well. It also has some technical improvements over the OEM Bosch unit - it's quieter running, and uses plastic roller pump elements instead of metal, so they a) won't rust, and b) are far more tolerant of dirt than metal (since the plastic can "give" instead of jam tight like metal). For this reason, look into getting the Pierburg pump instead of the Bosch replacement. If your local parts vendor does not carry Pierburg pumps, contact All European (http://www.alleuro.com) to order one. The Pierburg part number (updated) is 98154. |

I called SAP USA when I needed both pumps. I think I paid like 200.00 for both pumps plus shipping. They are super cheap and they are Bosch pumps.
Call 305-594-2844 and ask for a guy I think his name was Adrian.
