Hi mates!!!

I need some help about fitting a new fuel pump on my Escort RS turbo S2 `88

I had buy a new fuel pump on "Autospecialist", here is a pic:



But the problem is that I can´t bolt on the out of new fuel pump with a plug of the older fuel pump, I don´t know what it is, maybe a pressure valve or something?? Here´s a pic:



Maybe the older fuel pump not is the original one for Rst S2 so the new does not fit??
What will I need to fit the new one??

I´ll be waiting for answers..............

Thanks

 

Hi i need new one aswell but their is no block off value like that on my pump . Why do u need new one like mate ? Am going to put new one due to the 2nd fuel pump relay has gone .

 

If you cannot put screw from fuel pipe to new pump, put another pipe with right screw on it so then can put it. I dont see another way to do it.

denbo: on my rst doesnt have so big cap on screw.

 

Hi Denbo and Dragsteer

Thanks for your post.

I think, not really sure, that my older fuel pump is from other type car other Ford Escort, not a original Escort Rs turbo S2, so you don´t have so big cap on screw.

Looking on Ebay I saw this:




M12 banjo union (8mm pipe tail)
*
M12 dome nut
*
2x copper washers

Maybe with this I will fit my new fuel pump?????

i just fitted my new one right pain in the arse it was kept blowing the fuse.....and after messing about for million hours ma car wouldnt fire up

 

what you do... isnt so hard. just watch to dont mess + and -.

anvini: yes, this things on picture I have.

so just dont forget to dissconect battery +, and watch for + and - on pump.

 

Ok!! Dragsteer

Definitely I think that fuel pump is not the original for Rst S2, maybe for another Ford Escort but not a turbo Rs S2.

I would like to know it. And the best thing is that my car has worked with this rare pump installed.

 

I have same situation , when I bought car , it has some bmw pump on it. And work ok, but I have problems with start hot engine. how with original rst pupm is ok. good luck

 

I´m going to replace the fuel pump due some running problems that maybe caused by pump but not sure mate!!
Same like you.

Now I know the type of fuel pump i´ve got fitted, a friend of "rsownersclub.co.uk" Lukeduke told me that:

"My microcat says its a fuel pressure regulator for 1.6 cvh EFI (D/GB) FOR CATALYST WITH LAMBDA CONTROL. hope that helps"

So it is a incorrect fuel pump for my car, it is for EFI CVH and Rst S2 is MFI WITHOUT CATALYST.
