Club 80-90 Forums

Hi there,
Living in the fens it was only when i parked our newly acquired 81' 2.0 Aircooled Westy on a friend's inclined driveway that I noticed the petrol coming out from the fuel pump connection. On closer inspection the fuel pump just about fell off in my hand; it had been cobbled together to the connecting pipe. I'd like to get a new pump as not only has the end spigot been damaged by the previous 'fix', but the pump looks like it is well overdue for retirement. From initial searches I'm beginning to think the original cylindrical design is no longer available and the closest I've been able to find is a Facet electric fuel pump.... '12v electric fuel pump provideing 3lbs of pressure, giving you 30 gallons of fuel per hour'.
Is this the right one or does anyone recommend another sort?

Bought a Facet solid state one last year 2.5-3.5 lb (3lb), works fine. Old mechanical pump was leaking oil through the drain pipe.

Mick.

Excellent, thank you Mick.
