2.5 NA Distribution pump -- any difference between genuine and Lucas C


Recommended Posts

I'm having an awful time getting a fuel pump for my 2.5 NA that does not leak or is built properly.

Out of 3 pumps:

- The first one leaked through one injector pipe

- The next one leaked through the case

- The next one didn't leak, but something was just wrong -- the pump would lock only 180 degrees out. I couldn't start the engine in either position.

I'd chalk this up to my poor mechanical skills, but when I re-installed my slightly leaky pump, the engine started right up.

What, if any, is the difference between a the Lucas/CAV units I see for sale at various locations and a "genuine" one. I'm assuming that they are all made by the same manufacturer,

Perhaps I've just had a run of very bad luck.

Thanks,
