Direct drop in Fuel Pump

[Scientist]

My supra pump looked almost exactly the same as my factory pump and dropped right in

I love when people come on asking for info on how or what to do with a car but if the info they get is not what they wanted to here then that person is wrong. Newb you have a lot to learn. But wait because your a volva tech you know all

 

seems like you two are the only ones that get butt hurt when someone doesnt want to follow the way you say to do something, everyone else on here doesnt care.

 

[turbowop]

Yes, Brian and I are completely butthurt. Nail on head. You win teh prize. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rofl.gif

 

sweet my mission in life is complete now

OK on topic please. If you don't like someone's advice, or you don't like someone who refuses to take the advice they've asked for, please feel free to use the "Ignore This User" feature.

 

Alright but no offense he was the only that was off topic my thread states I was looking for a direct drop in pump nothing else so his posts were off.

I will take note of that feature for future threads though

thanks

I do! Why not try something that you haven't yet. Especially since it's already been proven to work by numerous other people, not just one.

When someone is adamant about something when you ask for advice it's usually because they want you to see for yourself how great it works. And if you took the time to see how ridiculous (and already ridiculed) limiting yourself to the stock setup is since it was not built with intentions of an upgraded fuel pump which you ARE trying to do, than it wouldn't hurt so much to say "damn, yea let's give it a try".

And you were butt hurt. People push each others buttons here because they expect someone to be adult enough to go along with it..not feel "hurt". Take the aggression elsewhere because I'm sure more people are laughing than are "not caring" as you say.

Give what the say a try. If it sucks, let them know why. If you find a better solution, throw it out there. That's what we're here for.

Well, I wouldn't discourage our longtime members from suggesting things in the Newbies forum that the member might not have specifically asked about.

No offense, but I didn't chime in until you wrote this little gem of a post:

Quoting tredmkv:
dont feel comfortable with cutting the stock barb and just having a piece of fuel line holding it on with no barb.



To which I answered:

Quoting turbowop:
Cutting off the flared end on the pump assembly is really not a big deal. The pump on 1051 has been setup like this since '01, and I've never had an issue. I think it's actually better, since it allows you to get rid of the problematic o-ring that resides in the flare.



I'm gonna go waaaaay out on a limb here and say my post wasn't "off". I'd say it was pretty much spot on in trying to make you feel more "comfortable" with the modification to make other pumps work.

A lot of us have been playing with these cars for a LONG time and know what works and what doesn't. We may not be Volvo techs, but I'm willing to bet you could learn a thing or two from us. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

 

no offense there is not much to learn from hooking up some fuel line to make a pump fit.
These cars are not rocket science like you are acting like they are.

 

[turbowop]

Who's acting like it's rocket science? Certainly not Brian and I. Fuel line works, and works well. Plain and simple. You're the one making it a big deal by saying it's not the "proper" way to do it. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rofl.gif

These threads are awesome. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/applause.gif

Well if they are not rocket science why are you asking what pump to use. If your smart enough to put a pump in a car then you should by all means be smart enough to use the f***ing search.

 

now who is getting butt hurt, i did use the search and did not see a pump that directly fitted in. You guys are funny. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Did you end up installing a pump yet? Just wondering what you ended up going with.
