Hi guys,

I have recently seen you cant get hold of the Genuine YB cosworth oil pumps anymore. My question is, what are people using instead of? I keep seeing these £130 'grp A' jobs that i assume are made by 'Auto pumps?'

any feedback on them at all? i HATE using aftermarket parts but it seems i'm stuck?

Thanks!

Modatek sell genuine cosworth oil pumps for around £175,I bought 1 a couple of months ago.
They do sell out fast but cosworth do remake them every so often.
Think the grp a pumps are pinto pumps with the covers ground down so I was told by the company who did my machining work.

yeah tried them and they have some Thanks!

also bought a 3bar map sensor from GGR but its not a genuine Magnetti Marelli - are these any good too?

Couldn't say but compare the weight of a gen marelli sensor to any other sensor and they are twice the weight.
There's a lot if bad write ups from days gone by about non cosworth oil pumps going bad,not worth the risk imo,prob find they are pinto pumps with ground covers.
I have a good used genuine pump from my saph,only replacing it as I'm that deep into it there's no point not doing it.

The pumps supplied by burtons and ggr are the very same pump and they seem ok

I’ve personally witnessed a couple of burton ones ruin peoples engines after only a few miles, if it was me I’d try and find a genuine one somewhere. Must be getting hard to find now

4wd or 2wd mate? As im led to believe the issues were with the 4wd pumps not 2wd

gcfcos

2 pumps failed on the same cvh rs turbo engine and now fitted with a genuine pump it is ok, cost the poor guy a lot of money and stress. My mates 2wd saph shat itself after a few miles and another saph I know of 2wd failed also during the running In period but to be fair they could have been running 200 blocks I’m not 100% sure as it was a good few years back but the cvh problems was fairly recent

Keep meaning to look in my garage and check the pump off my old engine

I'm using a 4x4 pump on a 2wd.

can't remember what the mod is to be able to do this i think the builder bent the pick up. also can't remember why the 4x4 pump is better lol
