That may be a pump for a different vehicle.
The Bosch inline pumps seem to be very similar and differ in minor details such as inlet or outlet diameter, and the type of connector to plug into. I have a Vanagon with a Bosch inline pump that uses a huge pressurized fuel filter downstream from the pump and one of the inlets or outlets is larger. If I remember right, the large diameter is the outlet and is sized to feed that large filter. You need to do something about that crud or buy a 12 pack of filters. It don't take long to plug a filter that size. I got a load of rust and crud in the Vanagon from the gas station. It must have been 3/4 of an inch thick in the bottom of the tank because I spent 35 minutes at the car wash with the high pressure hose watching that crud pour from that tank. It wasn't all tank rust as there was way more crud in the tank than the metal used to make the tank.... My guess was a pump at the refinery must have eaten itself. Of course Ohio laws allow bad gas to be shipped to us, so when the refinery drained the dregs, they sent them to my FORMER gas station..... To the good, the 914 filter is upstream from the pump so you won't need to buy a pump - unless you run it dry..... |
