Fit a escort cossie warlbro 255, Not that expensive

markc

mailed

Avinitlarge are they a straight swap for the orignal one??? and wat are the advantages??

SafeChav

You may find the Escos Pump fouls the fuel sender arm.....

markc

will a fez turbo pump fit in my tank?? wat bhp are they good for?
also will it work with the n/a till i upgrade the engine or will it run like a bag of the smelly brown stuff

SafeChav

Im pretty sure uprated fiesta ones fit straight on.

Yes it will still run ok, what your going to be fitting is a high flow pump, so it can deliver more fuel at high demand, your fuel pressure regulator will keep things consistent

markc

ah top stuff
where and how much are these pumps m8ty?? any makes that are better than others?

SafeChav

I couldnt tell you too much more about that

Im an external pump boy

Try ringing Burton Power, they would be able to tell you more i expect

markc

ah cool ta
just to let u kno theres a red mk1 on ebay dunno if its any use to u

SafeChav

I have a Red Mk1

Why are they all red, any colour but red would be excellent (except brown)

I'll take a peek though

markc

nout wrong with red (when its nice and bright )

SafeChav

Shit sorry

Wasn't thinking then

Red Mk1's don't cut it for me

markc

lol its ok red is lovely when its right its just keeping it like that thats hard, when mine was on the road id easily spend 2-3 hours min every weekend cleaning it
but when i look at it after and see it super shiney and bright makes it all worth while

SafeChav

The paintwork on my MK1 is starting to fade, beyond salvage its always going to dull again but it does polish up.

Its got to go within the next year anyway, need to find a Gold/Silver/Grey one ideally

markc

if the paint is the only bad thing on urs cant u just get it painted a diff colour??

SafeChav

Thats what everyone has said but i really do have nightmares about spraying a red car a different colour

Its pretty tidy but not quite mint enough for me, im a picky cunt at the best of times

The 255 warlbro pump fits a fiesta and a mondeo, I dont see why it would interfere with the sender on an escort/orion, The pump isnt really any bigger than the std one

this is mine



I bought mine from here, It was the cheapest place at the time

I just read a thread from someone on here, they had an uprated pump fitted and apparently it fouled the arm so the sender didn't work.

Can't remember what car it was but looking at your sender the arm is no where near the pump
