Title: Fuel pumps... A good idea?
Post by: Speedy1959 on Thursday, 15 March 2018, 05:23 PM
Now these seem a good idea..
Very inexpensive compared to OEM

What are your thoughts?

fuel pump used in 14 is the most used type in the efi world. fits multitude of cars, bikes, jet skis. the fitting parts, hoses etc are the only diff. mitsubishi uct30 is its name. has no problem in 14 as it is used in very high power cars. nissan skyline etc. used to work at efi supplier, pumps were imported from canada, 34 bucks was cost. then on sold as original parts up to 900 bucks. were all same pump.

I'm wondering how many pumps have shit themselves and need replacing. You could probably count them on one hand. The things that stop a 14 are the filters, not the pump. The easy to get to tea bag comes with these pumps but it's the unserviceable high pressure filter that doesn't and there's the problem 95% of the time.

By all means buy one of these pumps but I doubt you'll fix the fuel starvation problem.

just about to post that Snapey. pumps will go forever. that bloody black high pressure fuel filter, cause of most probs. the external filter makes life so easy, us and pump. just a mod that should be done. my bike has never run so good. get onto it blokes.

As said the pumps are ok
I added the inline low pressure filter to help both the teabag and high pressure filters .
The high pressure bypass seams to work well tho I've not needed to do this yet at 50000+miles may be just been lucky with fuel fill ups .
