$38 fuel pump? No thanks. Warranty or not I've done warranties with eBay sellers before and it sucks. Plus I've never heard if a fuel pump dying suddenly. But maybe I'm not listening hard enough?

It says Made in the USA also but for $38 that is hard to believe. It would be good to have a spare for that price. I also learned that Airtex is also made in the USA.

It can't be quality, but it's pretty easy on the PayPal! I nabbed a spare too.

Thanks for lookin out.

Edit: Let's hope we do not need that "lifetime warranty".

I know several people using these to pump WVO right now. I think Kirk said he has 40k miles on his already. For $38 I'd buy (2) and not care if the warranty was a PITA.

They may turn out to not be very good, who knows - but its an easy part to change and its more than 75% cheaper than the Bosch. I have asked everyone to POST UP as soonas they have a problem with it.

Timmy, sounds good. Take out you old one and start using this one and report back. I'd like to know how good it is and if it puts out the reqiured pressures etc..

When you guys get your ebay pump(s), let us know what brand it is. The part number is the same as airtex. For that price i question it.

I have Airtex pumps on my Dually, something wrong with them?

It doesn't look like an airtex, lemme try to find a pic of the global pump...

Jason. My experience is only with Bosch and Airtex. All the new Bosch pumps i used failed. I am still on the first Airtex i installed (years ago). I purchased another Airtex as a back-up to have available at a moments notice. I am an Airtex man.

I suspect this E2236 on ebay shares the part number, but is another brand.
The ebay image is similar to the Bosch design.

Here are images of the Airtex.



EDIT. It is listed as GA2236 on the Global Automotive website and does look like an Airtex E2236.
The ebayer is using the Airtex part number in the title, then switching to the correct number in the body of the posting.
Moving on.

Shoot. At this price, buy one and install it and use the one on your rig right now as a back up.

What kind of mileage is everyone seeing original pumps run to generally.
I don't think I'd install a cheapie pump like this unless it WAS an emergency-like the op said for $38 bucks just throw it in the tool box along with a spare GPS....

'00 has 170k and '01 has 240k, both original pumps holding about 60 psi at wot. An extra pump in the toolbox is a good idea, but if you keep your eyes open you will stumble across good deals on OEM pumps. I bought 3 of them about a year ago still in the packaging for $150.

From now until June, i'm my lil' bro's pitbitch, for his mx racing. I have the truck and toyhauler, for him to run the Big 6 circuit. Last weekend, truck'n to Taft, ca, it had dawned on me, if my pump was to go haywire, especially the wvo pump, then i'd be SOL. Ya, i leave with a full d2 tank, but burn'n the wvo is MUCH better. When we got back, thats when i bombed around looking for another, plus the fact, my d2 looks to be original, 13ys old, 160k on her. Came up on a few threads that these pumps are hold'n their own, pumping wvo.

When i receive it, i'll throw it ubder the frame, and see what psi its put'n out, plus a few WOT runs, and log the fuel psi drop off, if any, i encounter.
