I have been told by my local garage that the fuel pump on my 1997 2.5 turbo transit is faulty and can't be replaced as it is obsolete. The fault was picked up on a service. I hadn't noticed anything wrong myself. Apparently, revs are erratic and diagnosis by a specialist shows the pump or activators are at fault. He has suggested changing the activators but that may not solve the problem. (about £120 if both activators need changing. Alternatively, the fuel pump could be changed to a Bosh mechanical version for about £400 but the turbo would not work with the bosh pump. (I'm not sure if that would be new or reconditioned) I was so confused I forgot to ask! I would like to keep the van going as I have owned it for about 13 years and because it is a motor home it still has good resale value.
I don't know what to do for the best so I hope someone can give me some advice. Martin.
