| OK, the fuel pump died on my RRC. What I am looking for is the best price for a new pump. I am sure the Rover dealer wants a fortune. I was hoping that somebody might know of a place that carries these fuel pumps at a reasonable price. thanks D | | |

| try:
roversnorth.com britishpacific.com roverparts.com (though AB might not be the cheapest place...) tntlr.com
also, you could try PMing will tillery on dweeb. he parts out LR's that have stopped leaking on driveways and such.
i'm sure that others will be able to give additional insight.

| Try Jeffrey Steiner at Bradford Rovers in Bellingham. Mention that you heard about him on this website. If he can swing it he usually gives NW Overland Society members a discount.

| If you can wait, and if you dont' mind used, I'll have one available probably after this weekend. Assuming the pump for a 93 110 and a 90 RRC are the same. | | | |

| Doug,
The fuel pump on a 1990 classic sould be the same as on 87-89 Range Rovers. It is just a pump, the sending unit I believe is mounted on the side of the fuel tank. If you would like I can check on the price of a new unit for you, from my classic part supplier.

| Thanks Scott, I will have to check to see if the pump is only a pump or not.
If I remember right, being the Rover is a late 1990, I think the pump is integrated with the sending unit. I am not totally sure, but I think that is when Rover started to do that on the RRC.
Peter, I am not sure on the 110 pump. I would have to do some research on that.
thanks for the links too guys!

| Doug,
If you would like the price for a new one, I need the last eight digits of your VIN. If you would like a quote, I would be happy to help.

| Doug,
The best price I can get for you is $310 total with tax, and freight included. Dealer price is $399. Atlantic British has the pump for $199. They would probably be your best bet. The part number for your pump is PRC8318. Hope this helps.

| Have you had a chance to install the new pump yet? I'm curious about the fit, etc. Let me know.  Scott | | | |

| Doug, there's a well documented GM replacement unit (from a cadillac IIRC) on the RRO archives and pirate. never heard anything about the autozone unit, but i'm sure it's good for at least ... 15 or 20k miles  Seriously - the gen-you-whine units are good for over 100k. never heard much good about Autojunk. i mine was about $300 thru british pacific several years ago when i did it. amazingly enough, the rangie was limping along on just 7psi of fuel pressure
as long as you've got 37psi you can use anything. there've been several folks that have converted to an in-line fuel pump that's external to the tank. for some folks, if you're considering the bob 'n chop route this makes sense as a fuel-cell is generally somewhere on the horizon.
