She lives!
Thanks for advice everyone. My existing pump, while an original VW part, wasn't able to be serviced so I ordered the best quality I've I could find... From Alan Schofields and we are up and running.
The new pump was slightly taller so I had to change a bolt holding the carb on the...
It deffo looks like a VW part so I presume it's from a short period..... The cap containing the diaphragm looks to be pressed on rather than screwed so don't think it's serviceable.. I've ordered the best replacement I can find
It's stamped VW and Peierberg, you can see it if you zoom in on the first pic, but yeah, I can't find any reference to a refurb kit or anyone having stripped one like this.... The single screw dome type looks like they more commonly came with a screw in input any this is push on....
I'll just...
Changed the thread title as I have decided I would like to buy a rebuild kit but and struggling to see how to strip this pump down...
It's a single screw to remove the top dome and reveal the internal filter but I can't figure how to get to the diaphragm and other internal workings.
I can see...
Ah, nice one.... Kind of been through that procedure with slightly different equipment.
No squirty action at all coming out of the pump. If I pop the inlet pipe off the pump I get fuel flowing as the tank fuel level must be higher than the level of the pump so no blockage there.
Pretty sure...
I don't know this, I'll do a Google about it, but if there's literally nothing coming out of the back side of the pump after 10 engine cranks will it give me any extra info?
Sounds like a techniqueI want to know about anyway though
Pretty sure my fuel pump is not working.... It's got a good supply to it and doesn't output when the engine is turned over... The bus has been sat for a couple of months but ran fine before.
Do I buy a decent quality replacement (is there one?) or do I buy a rebuild kit? Doing my research it...
Yeah, I've sold my 3 1/4 width westy setup for this reason but I was thinking the 1200 isn't that much more narrow than a 1500 full width and could work with a nice arm rest or shelf either side for USB outlets, light controls etc
Just can't seem to find any pictures of one installed...I might...
Hi Davidoft, I have seen your name in threads about seatbelts! They were pretty old threads I thought and wasn't sure if you still did them. How much do you sell them for? (PM if you prefer)
You think the difference would be that noticable? I also have a feeling it'll be the wife and or kids in the bed and I'll be in the awning on the floor 🤦♂️😂
Nice.... I see you went for seat belt risers... You think they're essential for a full width bed? That's one reason I think a 1200 bed would be a good idea.
I also still have the spare in the same place so I feel like the 1200 width doesn't lose much practically as a bed
I'm starting from scratch with my interior and was planning on buying a Rusty Lee rock and roll bed. In order to have the rear seatbelts working well I had a full width in mind but they also offer a 1200 width bed... Anybody got one and able to show me their setup? I'm keen too see if it would...
