Eberspacher B1L Fuel Metering Pump

Post by Yozza »

Ay up,
I'm hoping to do some early camping this year and I'm after a little comfort. A Eber B1L has come my way, however, it has no fuel metering pump. I have searched high and low for; 1. One for sale on Ebay (UK & Germany) and 2. The actual part number for the pump. Both to no avail!!!
I have numerous Eber manuals but they don't give the part number for the pump.
Is there any other sources for buying a pump for such an old unit? (Anyone got one that's surplus to requirements?)
Does anyone have the part number?
Are there alternative manufacturers pumps that also work with the Eber heaters?

Thanks Oldie,
I contacted the seller (first link) and he wasn't sure if the pump was suitable for the B1L. Is it a case of... The fuel pumps are common across most of the petrol and diesel heaters? If it states the appropriate power rating and fuel type then that's sufficient info to say if it's a suitable pump for an old heater like the B1L?

So long as you get the one that is adjustable you will have no problems - the smaller of the two nuts (usually brass)on the outlet is used to increase or decrease the fuel flow if needed. I can't see it on the one from sarkblue but it's there on the other one. (list price is in the region of £130-£140).
I use whatever comes to hand - eberspacher pumps on webastos and adjust the fuel flow as required.

Cheerz Oldie, I have also come across this seller but she doesn't seem to know what she's selling. Have you ever used or come across these generic pumps? Ebay 230419356785.

I run a couple of the webasto airtop heaters - they are 2 kw and a couple of webasto hl18 s which are 1.8 kw and use the same pump on all of them, as the eber b1 is 1.8 kw I would have thought that they would be suitable.
I can't see any scope for adjustment of fuel flow but you should not need it (hard to tell even with the photo enlarged) - you would most probably need to adjust only if you used a pump that had been on one of the bigger heaters.
Cribbed from a yank site:
Offered for bid is brand new Webasto diesel fuel metering pump. The part number is 9012868C and is the current 12 volt unit for Webasto diesel heaters. This pump will work on the following heaters.

HL-18 HL-32 AT-32 AT-2000 AT-3500 AT-5000 HL-60 HL-90 Thermo 90

So I would say that it is suitable. :pimp
