I cannot say I am the least bit impressed with the plastic module found in the tank of this 93 six cylinder car.

The seal at the top which must be good in order for a good pump to deliver full pressure to the rail doesn't seem to be available or perhaps the broken plastic has resulted in some previous hack in stuffing whatever in there could be found.


I looked at many ways, I have a well equipped machine and fab shop, of simply becoming shed of the bad design and best I can tell, easiest would be to install an inline unit, but, that wouldn't exactly be straight forward, or even cost effective, once it's been done right.

Where is the best deal to be had on a complete module? The fuel pump itself is quite fine and new, the plastic is pretty much roached.

Thanks

I have good used pump modules. PM me.

 

I find it odd the most important seal, the one which couples the readily replaceable pump to the plastic body....

doesn't seem to be available or included with a new pump

it's nice all the pick up stuff is included with a new one, but, in the big picture, that end is of no consequence in assuring the pump can supply dead head, or even maintain operating, pressure to the fuel regulator

I searched all the posts here and it would seem some have posted that seal at the bottom, the pick up, is quite important.... I sure don't see it that way at all.

I haven't found any mention at all of the pressure seal being available and I cannot imagine this piece not being the cause of many problems. What is in the one I have here is light blue in color, soft like it is possibly viton, cylindrical overall shape and with a reversed conical counter-bored center..... and of course in multiple broken fatigued pieces

I have no idea if this is what it was supposed to have or if it was hillbilly rigged by some local inbred that somehow managed to break the plastic top

I just can't imagine what must have been in the tea when this setup was designed. Bad shrooms?

Bizarre is that the pump's un-****** pressure outlet nipple is much smaller than the hoses which would fit on it which means if one wanted to bypass all that non-sense and make a T to make everything work without the top

it would be monkey motion indeed requiring some delicate soldering of a larger ****** nipple onto the pump's nipple which is set in meltable plastic.

Words escape me other than those of Scarface.......

Whoooo Wow!

 

B-A-R-B-E-D is a censored word?????

pray tell, by what definition in the queens english doth this word offend anyone?

a hinkey doo thingy which results in a hose being able to be securely clamped to a nipple....... is a reasonable definition on this side of the pond

like the thing on the end of a fish hook which helps keep an unwary fish interested in the battle which ensues.......

 

ok, pm'd you and thanks. However, contact me asap if you want to do business.

are there any more lively jag places/forums which have larger groups of people suffering these chariots of inanity ?

 

jag-lovers.org is another but none of them are exceptionally lively.
