Also try Petro-Ject SA they sell a lot of Bosch parts to the trade (fuel injectors, coils, pumps exchange factory ecu's etc), see what they can do for you. They may even be able to give you a cheaper alternative. 910 external pumps that VL's use are a fair bit cheaper from memory but flow nearly just as much fuel.

Think you'll probably be pushing you know what up hill to get an 040 for $200 though, especially if you want it right now.

Edit: Just looked in my Bosch book

910 flows 130 litres/minute at 5 bar

040 flows 102 litres/minute at 6.5 bar

I don't know why they don't give the ratings at the same pressure. Flow being inversely proportional to pressure if you ran the 040 at 5 bar instead of 6.5 it would flow about the same as the 910.

ahk, not sure bout externals, im trying to keep cabin noise down a bit, ive got the rumble of a straight through exhuast blaring already, so im trying to keep an annoying high pitched squeal at a minimum.

R32Abuser: yeh pretty sure pump daddy's well and truely gone, he hasnt done business in a while.

Cubes: im assuiming u mean the 040? yeh im not real fussed on price, but anything over 250 isnt worth it IMO, i just needed it ASAP. if i can get one tomorow i might be able to still get it done, but its pushing it.

pkblade: will do, ill give him a PM now and a call tommorow. hes a member on ns.com i beleive.

In the forced induction thread there is a recent post about $170 040 pumps, from a melbourne ford place. I bought mine from them, off ebay, and had it in 2 days.

Great service, under $200 delivered.

    • I agree that delayed payment probably isn't the most suitable solution. It seems a solid complete transaction would be best. As I wouldn't be using this sale as a line of credit that would typically earn interest, we can probably arrange a much cleaner single transaction deal. I can do $92.52 today. Would you prefer EFT, or Cash on Pickup?  😛
    • Oh man what a deal.... Funny enough (well not really) I sold a car to some old dude (buying for his Daughter) on a Saturday, He asked if she could take the car now and pay me the money on Monday as the bank wasn't open. Needless to say I told them to come back with the cash or get f**ked! Luckily the money seemed to magically appear in his pocket a few minutes later, so it all ended well (for me).
    • Gucci bags tend to hold their value well, so someone’s definitely going to get a nice find here.
    • @Ozdavroz Not going to get a better deal than that. Cash up front and ongoing payments. 🤑
    • I wouldn't even move it like gTSBoy is saying. I'd seriously do what Duncan is saying. Unplug the injectors, and unplug the fuel pump.  Pull the spark plugs out. Have a look in quickly with a bore scope if you want. At most, you can't spray a bit of oil into the bores so there is lubricant in there while you crank it. (Don't fill it, as it's only going to enter the exhaust, or spit at you out the spark plugs holes. Before cranking the engine on the starter, after a 5 year sit I'd probably prime the oil system manually. Easiest way to do so is to look at buying an oil filter relocation block, fit it to the engine. The pressure line going into the engine on this block you can then shove into some sort of oil pump, or put it into a bottle, with that hose going to the bottom. Fill bottle up with oil. Now seal the bottle and add a compressed air line to the top of the bottle. Feed compressed air in, about 20psi will be PLENTY. This will pump oil through the motor. Be aware, it also means it will drain back to the sump, so make sure you don't end up over filling the motor Now bolt the old oil setup back on (or fully install the remote filter system).   This way you've at least pushed fresh oil everywhere, then you're letting the motor crank to then do its own oiling. Then I'd tap the key to make sure it can start to crank, if the motor free bumps, then I'd just hit the key and let it crank. After letting it crank and seeing you can get real engine oil pressure, put new spark plugs in, reconnect the fuel system electrics, and send it.   Additionally, you can look to remove the fuel feed line to the rail, and divert it to a tank so you can get the bottom of the tank shit out, and just incase there's some crud sitting anywhere that gets passed the fuel filter (or is already ahead of it).   If fuel injection at the injectors ends up appearing to be a problem, you can dump the injectors into an ultrasonic cleaner for a quick flush clean out. Note this isn't as good as new injectors, or getting them pro cleaned and flowed
