Title: High pressure diesel pump
Post by: Mark Vardy on November 24, 2017, 09:51:00 PM
Hi Iââ,¬â,,¢m wondering if itââ,¬â,,¢s possible to replace the fuel inlet contentions as in the part the fuel pipe slides over and the clap grips,Iv got 2 but Iv noticed one has a cracked one,itââ,¬â,,¢s not the one that spins itââ,¬â,,¢s one of the fixed ones.

Really sorry about the spelling mistakes and wrong words ☹️ It sort of crashed before I could sort it out
* inlet connections

Which ones do you mean the ones from bulkhead to filter or ones between filter and tandem pump/head?
If itââ,¬â,,¢s after filter normal 8mm fuel pipe and jubilee clips will replace them if itââ,¬â,,¢s the ones to the filter then thatââ,¬â,,¢s a bit more tricky as the 8mm rubber part is crimped to the pipes from bulkhead so would need to be replaced with genuine parts I would think?

Iââ,¬â,,¢m not sure if that will work,if it has itââ,¬â,,¢s the part that the yellow caps are on,one has a crack in the metal part that the pipe goes over,itââ,¬â,,¢s that Iââ,¬â,,¢m wondering if I could replace with another one
It the unit thatââ,¬â,,¢s attached to the side of the bulk head,itââ,¬â,,¢s the unit itself one of the 3 metal outlet tubes has a big split down it,Iv tried to post a pic but I cant change it to the right file to be able to post

Oh right itââ,¬â,,¢s actually the steel pipe on tandem pump thatââ,¬â,,¢s cracked then,in that case you need to replace the pump. Fairly cheap on the fleabay,shame you didnââ,¬â,,¢t post this few days ago as I had a spare reconditioned LUK pump that I let go with the Audi A3 I sold.
