Crazy K Posted December 1, 2006 Report Share Posted December 1, 2006 so looks like the 92 convertible's pump crapped out while I was trying to run it just now. I could get a walbro 225 pump or an acdelco pump. so I ask, which should I choose? Longest pump life, cost, and warrenty wise? I have no plans except tpo run my unmodded 3.1 off of it. links for good deals? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robby1870 Posted December 1, 2006 Report Share Posted December 1, 2006 if you're just going to keep it stock, no need for the Walbro. Just get the standard replacement. I put a Master brand one in a few months ago. It was like $50 at Advance. I have no idea how much the Delco one is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeremy Posted December 2, 2006 Report Share Posted December 2, 2006 I'd go delco if available, but I wouldn't hesitate to you the Bosch one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5speedz34 Posted December 2, 2006 Report Share Posted December 2, 2006 Personally, I hate Bosch. There is a write up on the TGPforum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOHCRagtopguy Posted December 2, 2006 Report Share Posted December 2, 2006 Ken, you can't beat the AC/Delco. After all, it's what the General put in at the factory! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy K Posted December 2, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2006 I've done 3 fuel pumps in W's. I was just trying to decide where to go or what the best deal is. lifetime warrenty on the bosch should do it for me. after all... it will probably quit in 10 years and I do not plan to sell the car. if I have to kill it I'm keeping the pump... and most of the rest of the car given the choice. p.s. I would've though this would be outside of powertrain. :shrugs: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfewtrail Posted December 2, 2006 Report Share Posted December 2, 2006 Ken, there are lots of AC Delco pumps on ebay. "EP378" is the part number for the 3.1 pump(it's supposedly used in the DOHC's as well). My original EP378 lasted 244,000 miles for what it's worth. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/FUEL-PUMP-OLDSMOBILE-CUTLASS-CALAIS-88-91-EP378_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33555QQihZ003QQitemZ130040882966QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWD1V#ShippingPayment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canada Posted December 5, 2006 Report Share Posted December 5, 2006 Just be sure to replace the sock, pulsator, and the fuel filter. Most pump warranties require the fuel filter to be replaced. AC Delco does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
