Electric oil pump

Post by H-top » Mon Jul 20, 2009 2:21 pm

G'day all,
I've got a spare bosch 910 fuel pump, wondering if it's possible to run it a an engine oil / power steering / gearbox fluid pump?

Or can i be pointed in the direction of a reasonably priced purpose made item?

Cheers

What for?
Those 3 things you've listed have different pressure and volume requirements.

EFI pumps are roller cell units so I don't think they'd take too kindly to pumping anything much more viscous than fuel or very light oil .

Advertise it to the petrol heads , someone should buy it .

Just want to experiment. Take more things off the belt, chasing every kw.
And would be cool to have something like that rigged up.
I enjoy a good engineering task :)
Thanx for the help guys, i'll keep looking though
Any more advice is appreciated
