can someone help me please ? mk2 transit

[THE MAYOR]

hi there i own a 2.5 di mk2 diesel transit you may have seen it on youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PAUE4J-eXeA
i'm in desperate need of a diesal fuel pump for it as it is leaking badly now

if anyone can help me please ring 07407480102 many thanks

[Neil]

can t your local diesal man sort it out

[FredTransit]

is it a Lucas or a Bosch pump mate?

[oldyellar]

is it a Lucas or a Bosch pump mate?

looks like the mk1 di as fitted to mk2s with the tin breather what pump would that be ?

[FredTransit]

if you mean metal air filter box could be a Lucas DI or even a York. If its the original DI its likely to be a Lucas. The Lucas is an oblong pump with CAV cast on the top.
Any Transit CAV Lucas pump will fit your engine if thats whst it is

[Neil]

he says 2.5 so won t be york

[FredTransit]

yeah and I am seeing a phase2 too but you never know what might happen in 20+ years. Could have had a york fitted at some stage. We've had 2 B regs with yorks so it does happen.

[Neil]

is york not 2.4

[FredTransit]

Yes they are, yet on this very site some have come on and said they have either had a 2.4 DI or a 2.5 york or just read the unchanged V5 and assumed it was a DI and was infact a york.

[oldyellar]

2496cc is the di alot of people miscall it a 2.4 both engines are easy muddled if you dont know mush about them, anyways it will be a lucas cav as they always leak
