Reliable fuel pump brand?

[TheBoogieman]

For 60 bucks, this is great for raising and lowering tanks.

I could use that to lift me up into my Jeep too.

I replaced my 2006 oem pump assembly before it failed, but it has 160k on it.
I kept it for a spare, but should I rebuild/replace any parts on it or just leave it on the shelf till I decide to trash it?

If you're gonna throw it out, nothing. You could do the check valve and pump itself and maybe save a few bucks for an entire new assembly should you need one.

I just bought a spare Bosch one from RA to keep on the shelf.

275K on the original so far...

I'd keep it if the gauge was still working OK. You can always just replace the pump in it.

Was oem Mopar or Bosch?

I replaced it with a Bosch assembly.

Mopar. Discontinued I believe.

 

[JKP]

Bosch made the MOPAR ones.

They also made the OEM one in my YJ. It went 275K or so before it was not able to keep up with WOT flow.

Ah. So they're branded Mopar built by Bosch?

 

[JKP]

Yes.

Mopar O2s are NTK
Fuel modules/pumps - Bosch
Belt tensioner - Litens

Those are the ones that pop to mind.

That triples the price.

Fuel Pump Jeep Wrangler TJ 03-04 Gas Engine New Genuine Mopar 5093788AC​

US $469.00
Shipping $39.00

That triples the price.

Right. Sounds like Delphi is your big winner.

I didn't think they were still available.
Or is it just the older ones?

 

[TheBoogieman]

I thought so until I read all the negative reviews. It's a crapshoot, I guess.

06 was still available. Bought it before they quit.

For what it's worth in 2013 I replaced the pump with a Airtex from Advance Auto parts .
Seems to work fine this entire time , and at the time it was built in the USA .

 

[Rickyd]

You can't get just the bosch pump to put in your module?

 

[JMT]

Maybe put the floor access panel in and try the Delphi. If it craps out, easy swap.

The GenRight kit costs more than a fuel pump. I guess I could buy the $40 Ebay pump then.

You don’t need GR. Just cut the hole, reinforce the cut edges with angle iron, and bolt an aluminum plate to the angle iron. Walla!
