gavin.starr Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 Are they not the same fitments just a different name? Correct me if im wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hackin_n_bashin Posted July 29, 2011 Author Share Posted July 29, 2011 Same fitments I think, but I think there are some mods to do to the bracket. Wanted as much info as I could before I started, as I'm still a little wary of playing with stuff that sits in fuel! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Wilson Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 Totally different fitments, you would need to get a suitable adaptor to link the output of the Bosch pump to the fuel line. You need to buy the Bosch specific "sock filter" for the base of the pump. You need to be creative and make some means of attaching it to the stock fuel pump hangar. There have been various photos put up of these conversions, a search on Bosch 044 should find something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think I have the adapter, and definitely have the sock, will have a check in the morning, after taxing the damn thing! Was the creativeness part I was missing, cheers Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dandan Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 Cheers Dan' date=' your a star[/quote'] No sweat - this line in my post is important The pump was resting on the bottom part of the hanger (where the stock pump's rubber mount is) but this made the whole thing too long. I ended up chopping the hanger a little shorter but unfortunately I didn't get any pics at the time. You need to chop the 90degree bent bit off the end of the hanger - start with about 5-6mm off the total length and then try it sat in the tank. You'll know if it is too long as the sock filter will hit the bottom of the tank and the hanger won't sit down properly in position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
