I purchased years ago one aftermarket pump to see if it works. Physical dimensions are same so it fits. Earlier this year when I test fit it I decided to scrap it as it had been on my shelf about 10 years. Ended up to purchase new mode as I mentio ned earlier. It has worked flawless so far. Little higher pressure as they advertise. I don't want to compromise with either ignition or fuel delivery systems.

I fitted the pump and started up. All appeared to be good but after returning from a short text flight I found oil everywhere inside the cowl! Don't compromise safety for a few extra dollars. It's not worth the risk. Cliff > Hi, > > I found that some European Opel cars used same pump. I purchased years > ago one aftermarket pump to see if it works.
