Tight fart Posted April 2, 2002 Share Posted April 2, 2002 the pump has failed on my SLR, its the external type. Does any one know what pump it is? or what is best to replace it with. and is it worth putting a filter before it if so which type. cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Wong1697456877 Posted April 2, 2002 Share Posted April 2, 2002 I thought SLR's had in-tank pumps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Walker Posted April 2, 2002 Share Posted April 2, 2002 I agree with Alex the SLR has an internal pump. It also has a gauze filter in front of it. The round canister bolted to the rear bulkhead is the main high pressure fuel filter. You will have to remove the fuel tank to replace the pump, be carefull not to overtighten the fuel pump flange fixings when you are putting it back or you will distort the end face of the tank. Its easy done only tigthen using the shaft of the screw driver or the tank will leak like a bad un. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tight fart Posted April 2, 2002 Author Share Posted April 2, 2002 I think the road SLRs do but this has a race tank, and it was deffinatley outside the tank when I took it off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
