Hi,
My mate has a “Doctor John” beast and the fuel pump is clogged up with horrible orange stuff - yuk - so dead !
Do you know whether the pump for the Alfa would work (as per your link) as £45 is much better than £229 quoted
Your help would be appreciated.
p.s. it looks exactly the same …
Thanks

no reason why they shouldn’t if you look the carb engined biked need a lower psi pump than the Fuel injected bikes, so if you know what the pressure of the pump is there shouldn’t be a problem. I have used the alfa pump on a Virage and the McGill one also works well . McGill are however helpfull and do know what they sell. worth a call to them i recon.
The EV pump (similar vintage to the Dr John) is an Alfa part.There are a couple of threads on this including links to a supplier.All the best,Steve
look through te listings the SAME part numer pump for a Ford is actually cheaper???
52mm 3 bar external fuel pump as fitted to cali 1100i and many other models 12mm inlet 8mm outlet.
You can pick up a new pump on ebay for £35 . They are a common pump on 80’s-90’s european cars. I think the only difference if any is they may have an 8mm outlet instead of 7mm.
