1.8 injection fuel pumps?

ChrisG · 02-10-16, 07:00 PM

1985 80 Sport DZ engine, hoping to attend ADI in it but currently not running!!
Pretty sure I'm about to buy a new fuel pump!
Best place to buy ?
There seems to be a couple of makes and a local GSF/Euro says they have stock- however they are not Bosch , or does that not really matter these days?
Also whilst in there I feel it sensible to renew fuel pipes with ethanol resistant versions ( I currently use additives).
What size(s) and how much length would do them?
I shall also do the filter.
Thanks

Link to refurb company, anybody have experience?

KMI are highly regarded in the rallying world and from memory were the first to build the modified 959 pumps.
I have used them many times with no issue.
As for pumps there are various other brands as good as Bosch more infuriatingly there are even more knock off Bosch pumps .
Don't but on part number buy on spec and fitment.
