Jim-Ohio 1 #1 Posted December 26, 2017 Are all of the replacement fuel pumps for this engine plastic with the push in fuel fittings? It has a plastic pump now with screw in fuel fittings. Are the pumps listed on E-Bay the same as you'd get at a dealer? Over the phone a dealer quoted a price of $78.59, while the ones on E-Bay are $20 - $30.

953 nut 58,367 #2 Posted December 26, 2017 I have been replacing the fuel pumps on many of mine with low pressure electric fuel pumps. As for the price difference I would suggest sticking with a Kohler pump rather than an after market Chinese knock off. The Kohler pump you are about to replace probably has served you well for twenty or more years and a new Kohler pump will probably do the same. That works out to less than $ 4.00 a year. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WHX?? 50,920 #3 Posted December 27, 2017 Welcome to Red Square Jim There are rebuild kits available as well if you want to stay original. About the same $$ as the plastic ones and there is a link in the RS links section. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim-Ohio 1 #4 Posted December 27, 2017 With the plastic pump and a gasket is a sealer recommended, and if so what type of permatex or something else should be used? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
