Fuel pump

The bladerunner has two fuel pumps, which pump fuel to the rear of the boat from the front tank. They look like a round housing about 4 inches long, 2 inches wide, with a 2 inch square on the bottom. It has an inlet and an outlet. ( duh? )

I need to replace one.

Any ideas? Halfords dont have this type.

Ideas?

Sounds like it could be a holley style electric pump, if so, there are two basic models, one is red, and the other is blue. i can't remember which is which, but one is the 'competition' model, with higher pressure & flow.
available from most 'speed shops'.

We stock Holley pumps, blue (higher pressure) and red - but in stainless steel (marine versions) which are not normally available over here.

Very slim.

There are holes in the front where the spray rails got knocked off, which are letting in water.

The linkage between the two engines and the steering is snapped.

The fuel pump needs replacing, and the fule line replaced.



I *will* be down Tuesday and Thursday, and I have enquired about the parts....
