1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

I'm a big fan of Aeromotive if it's going to be an upgrade pump, otherwise Denso or Aisin is the way to go

 

yup denso is where I’m going.

Because I’m in Hawaii I’m having a hard time making sure what tank to get. I’m not sure if I have the 16, or 18 gallon tank. I want to get the Dorman tank off Amazon for free shipping to save me 140 bucks

 

5 lug = 15 gal tank. 6 lug = 18 gal

 

Wat

 

For Toyota, I'd stick with whatever OEM is but that's the first time I'd hear a vote against the Walbro.

Used them in plenty of my go fast cars

I thought that too until I came here, a lot of people knock walboro but I think the issue is they used to be good and now it’s all china made

 

They have it defined poorly on their website. I can't tell you what that fits accurately. All I know is it is pre 2003 model years

 

The reason too I have concern Amazon and rockauto have slightly different Dorman part numbers

 

@what road

Think you'll finish your truck before I finish the 4R I don't even have in my possession?

 

They're trash, independently tested they underperform and they're high failure rate. Not to mention that even their light duty 190-250 lph models whine constantly. They used to be good and now they just ride on the reputation from years past.

 

Got it, it’s I have an 04 with the evap on the tank

 

Damn did I miss? Just saw he deleted his initial post lol

 

Ahh..yeah I used them over 10 years ago, have yet to use them since then.

Sucks to hear they went down

 

Idk, I'm going to the body shop first thing in the morning and whipping my buddy lol

 

They used to be the shit no question. I have that opinion from my years in small engine work, so take it with a grain of salt but Walbro is almost exclusively used in all 2cyl motors that are too big for a vacuum actuated pump. I noticed a major decline in quality from about 2009 to 2015 ... I had to warranty numerous electric Walbro pumps because they switched to a lower quality plastic in their gear set and littlest amount of contaminants would sheer the teeth



I have zero experience with Walbro in automotive applications so I can't say if their just as bad or have better QC for the higher flow pumps

 

Dude replied back to @JKO1998's post with a rather uh, risque response then ninja edited it. Dont wanna get banned so I wont say what it was haha.

"Let's replace X parts with these cheaper Y parts and ask for more money"
