How many differant types of fuel pumps have been fitted to valvers and williams ???

The one in my race car is a pcb type with a plastic cap that slides up and down to pump fuel.

I have a williams one which is totally differant to the valver one with two outlets and more connections to the loom....

Does anyone know if u Can u make a williams one fit a valver one ?

The one I had in my J-reg was completely different as it was seperate to the sender, but afaik the only difference is the casing? The pump itself is the same?

May require some botching to make it fit, I had to wrap mine in bike tubing as it was meant for newer models which had smaller pumps but it still works perfect.

Mmm so the other one maxi is just the float ?

How do i know what tank i have mate - when u lift the inspection all i see is one pump or float thing with 3 connectors and one outlet. When i changed this for a spare one the car would start again.



Stan - my fuel pump is broke on the cup. I have a replacement out of the ex hybrid and its now fine but i want a long term solution plus i need to refit the exhybrids pump at some point. i bought a replacement upgrade from demon tweeks and its sod all like mine inside...so i wanted to know if i can convert my internals to a williams standard.

I would hazard a guess that the actual pump will be inter-changeable...the housings and senders may be different, but the pump will be the same.

the pump on mine was different, I had to take the plastic housing apart and bodge the walbro pump in there as it was a different size, works fine though.

yeah there might be slight differences, but basic fitment is near the same.... any case u can MAKE them fit easy enough.
