Till it fries,or you get sick of the noise

what did you replace your's with after you got sick of the noise?

as stated fits std cradle(just) with a bit of modifacation, from memory you dont use top part of cradle due to larger diameter of 040, i found the hardest part sliding the cradle back on it's posistioning rails, and i hardly notice the pump noise only on priming and then nothing, and also mine came with a non return valve which i removed hence a little bit longer to crank over,no big deal.

i put a walbro i have been told the 040 is similar in mine last week took 10min.

The only mistake people make is in the tank.

*On the line there is a plastic t peice which is a pressure bypass valve and it wont allow mutch more pressure

than the standard pump you MUST remove it to get max flow. i found out about it on the dyno and had to remove

it on the dyno.

*and the new pump uses more power so upgrade the power supply to the pump.

mine is just as quiet as the standard pump so far so good

with the 040 you'll want a direct feed from the battery

also make sure to position it as LOW as possible so you dont have issues with the tank when 3/4 empty.

with my 040 installed 4yrs ago have never had any issues, can run the fuel tank almost dry as it is situated as low down as possible.

i think s2's have a different setup to the s1's

just so any series 2 owners look at this thread, a walbro is the best option for s1's as they are the same size as stock
