SU Fuel Pump . . . Better than new!

Why not tell us about your car (start with a picture) and say what you have done with it; either restoring or using it over the years. Restoration of particular parts is of special interest. Club members can have their space on in their Personal Album to do this.

SU Fuel Pump . . . Better than new!

Post by marshalljackson »

No more crawling under my Jup to clean the fuel pump's points or hammer the fuel pump or . . .

Last week i sent my fuel pump to SlatsCars of Ridgefield, Washington. Within a week, Slats Wolfe coverted my pump to solid state (NO MORE MECHANICAL POINTS), inpsected the pump, cleaned it, bead blasted it, repainted it, reconditioned the check valves, installed new gaskets, and thoroughly tested it. He charged less than $100. I got my pump back yesterday and had it re-installed within an hour of it arriving. She started right up without any coaxing. I keep asking myself why I took so long to do this. I hope to never have a fuel pump problem again!

If you'd like to do the same, you can reach Slats at:
