Hi guys,

Just want to know if anyone has had experience with the 'Walbro pumps' they sell on ebay from 'Performance world'...

They are a good price but are they real or fake, regardless of what the seller says. I know that China is making some extremely good copies and need peoples feedback.

Heres the link

Thanks

Adam

I bought my first one off ebay, and im pretty sure wasnt genuine, had all the markings and promises from the sellet etc.. In the end it died (dont think it lasted a year) so I got one off Hiro and shes all sweet.. Now my mixtures are too rich and need a retune..

Be careful is all im sayin..

Thanks for the replies,

So where would be the best place to get one in Melbourne? Or the best place in general (shipped to Melbourne)?

Is there any advertises that offer us deals on pumps and injectors?

Looking at buying some parts soon.

Thanks

Adam

Its easy to tell after you've fitted one.

The originals go CLICK when you turn them on, the Chinese ones go CRICK.:Sug1:

:roflmbo: That's gold.

Hi Adam,

I'd happily be able to provide you with your pump and injectors. I have a supplier based in Melbourne so you can pick up if you want to save on delivery cost's.

The part numbers on the ebay advertising dont match the part numbers for the Walbro intank pumps. Ive been providing GS 351 to customers.

Shoot me a PM on the injectors you require and I will happily do you a packaged price.

Hi Adam et al.

If you turn the pump upside down, the OE Walbro item uses a metal impeller wheel, where as the copies have a plastic impeller wheel. The copies also tend to come with just a strainer and plug kit, not an original Walbro fitting kit.
