Hpfp help!
« on: October 04, 2014, 10:05:49 am »
So I'm looking for a high pressure fuel pump but can't find a second hand one for sale anywhere and I don't want to spend £700 odd on an brand new apr or loba one.

I've heard some people say about buying just the valve and getting it fitted into my original pump but I was wondering how it would hold up with all the original o rings etc.

Some people have said to me not to bother with the valve and find a complete pump so I was wondering whether someone has tried it before or can somebody shed some light on my situation

Thanks in advance!!

Used APR pumps come up for £300ish these days. That would be my choice on a budget  :happy2:

Cheers for the input guys! I'll keep a look out for a used pump but if not looks like I'll be buying the internals. I saw one for sale ages ago and should of picked it up then was a reconditioned apr pump am kicking myself now!
