Product Description

This Fuel Pump has an operating lever the sticks out past the mount. Requires the use of the Shorter Pump Drive Rod #113127307A (100MM Length) or the rod will not fit flush with flange. VW originally used this style pump on 1973 through 1974 Beetles, 1973 through 1973 Super Beetles and 1973 through 1974 Karmann Ghias that came equipped with an alternator.

Am I ordering the correct Fuel Pump for my car?

Alternator and Generator Fuel Pumps look identical on the outside, but they mount differently under the base. Pay attention to where the metal operating lever is located underside.

  • Does it stick out past the base?
  • Or does it sit recessed inside the base?

This is essential to check as your fuel pump drive rod will either be too short (no contact with operating lever) or too long (break the operating lever on impact). Please double check with the image to ensure you are ordering the correct type of fuel pump.

Fuel Pumps, Generator vs. Alternator

Additional Notes:

Replacement mechanical pumps can put out 6 psi of fuel pressure or more out of the package. Stacking gaskets, or grinding or filing down the flat side of the fuel pump drive rod are the standard methods for lowering the fuel pressure. We recommend 3 psi or lower for most carburetor set ups and some carburetors will work best with 1.5 psi.

Fuel Pumps come packed in a light oil that is used for testing and to keep the diaphraghm from drying out. This is not at all out of the norm. As you should do before connecting any fuel pump to your carburetor, hook up the fuel lines to the pump. Run the line that goes to the carburetor into a small fuel safe container and crank the engine over until you get a clean, steady supply of fuel. Then connect the hose to the carburetor and continue on with the installation.

Shipping

Our shipping policy is as follows:
We ONLY ship within the United States and its territories.

Orders over $100 will receive free shipping within the continental United States. Freight on under $100 will be $9.95. Large packages ship FedEx. Smaller packages ship US Priority Mail. Delivery time averages 1-5 business days after it ships.

Most orders to Hawaii, Alaska, APO/FPO, Puerto Rico and other US territories are shipped by the US Postal Service. The shipping costs for these orders are billed at the time of shipping.

For expedited shipping, you must call us. All express orders are personally handled by the representative you speak with in order to streamline the process. Please do not request express shipping via email. Emails are reviewed in the order they are received which could possibly delay your shipping.

Shipping on any returns is the customer's responsibility. If your order qualified for free shipping and a returned item reduces your order below the $100, you will be charged the according shipping cost for the order.

Returns

90 Day Return Policy

You can return most unused, never installed, like-new items for 90 days from the date of receipt. Items must be in like-new condition. The following items are final sale:
  • Special order items
  • Special order upholstery
  • Electrical items
  • Installed carburetors
Like-new Condition: JBugs may refuse a return when the returned item is not in like-new condition. These situations will lead to refused returns:
  • Installed items
  • Items missing parts or the original packaging material
  • Items damaged in return shipping due to improper packaging
  • Carburetors that smell like fuel
  • Damage due to customer negligence
  • Items with scour marks that show installation or attempted installation from nuts, bolts, screw-driver’s, washers, etc.

Returns must be sent in a proper shipping box.
With the exception of parts that are shipped to you in the original manufacturer packaging (example - TMI door panels, floor pans, complete front beams, etc), please be sure to return the parts with an external box or protective packaging around the parts you are returning. Most manufacturer packaging boxes are not rated for shipping and can become damaged or destroyed as they are too thin to withstand forces applied during the shipping process. Failure to do so will result in a higher restocking/reboxing fee or outright refusal of the return if the part cannot be restocked in the same condition it arrived at you.
