Blackie Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 Instead of searching walbro 255 pump on eBay I just searched supra 255lph pump and loads come up half the price of a walbro, will these be cool for bpu or are they just going to be pants that give up after a thousand miles?

dr_jekyll Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 im tight as a ducks rear but i wouldnt risc it with a fuel pump , if it starts slowly dieing and leaning your mix it could cost you the engine . walbro is tryed and trusted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 As above, the walbro is tried and tested, for such a (relatively) small amount of money for such a critical component it's just not worth risking it for some unbranded copy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going for a £70 one off eBay but it's not really reputable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
