Default Volvo 740 GLE 2.4L - Replacing the fuel pump - 07-05-2009 , 06:08 PM






I need to replace the fuel pump on my 1989 2.4L Volvo 740GLE. The fuel pump
for the Volvo are quite expensive. I am thinking of using a fuel pump from
another make of vehicle altogether, such as a fuel pump from a Volkswagen Golf
or similar fuel injection vehicle. Would there be any problems with this?

Mark.

Why do you need to replace yours? Overheating? Water pump don't go bad
easily unless is rebuilt by American stupids with much frictions that they
think it's normal. Sometimes your overheating could come from gapping your
parks plug too close. You have to find the core of your problem, don't
just assume thing or believing the idiots in this group.

The price of a fuel pump (external) it's about 90 euro..

See www.partsforvolvosonline.com

I have a problem with the fuel system on my 240 B200F (same motor of
740) some years ago.
I solved changing the relay and cleaning carefully the fuse contact (in
fact the fuse were always hot)

Its the fuel pump. I snapped a terminal off whilst trying to remove the fuel
line.

I guess we got our first troll here, at least the first I've seen. Just
add a filter to block him, or otherwise ignore him and he will
eventually get bored and go away.
