ok i am hoping someone will be able to answer this question for me, i know what a walbro or walbros look like and have stamped on them as bought a few over the years.

just bought one on here, arrives today and low and behold all the usual markings have been filed off, leaving no markings at all and then like some paint or the likes in brown where the markings used to be.

so email the guy stating WTF is this!! to be told it's deff a walbro and came from a car with ppp pack fitted and this is what they do, niw with never having a ppp pack fitted i dont know if this is the case or not.

all i do know is that i'm not particularly happy about what i have got, can anyone confirm this??

as i think i am getting my chain pulled and not feckin happy!!

it was removed from an sti, and like i said i was led to believe that subaru did this, if your not happy please return in and i will give you a full refund. i got it from a chap on here amd bought quite a few bits from him, i had no reason to doubt him when he told me what im telling you, but if your not happy i will give you a full refund.

Hi ppp pack do use walbro fuel pumps and yes the markings are filed off .They are a 255lph puel pump. Speak to Bob Rawle who will also confirm this as i needed the same answer as your looking for and this is the confirmation i also got.

If it came from an STi then it will be a walbro pump.

I have been told by several people that Subaru removed the markings from the fuel pump as mine doesn't have any markings on it either.

this was removed from an sti and bought from a member from here jolly green monster remapped his car and i pickec the items up from him so it is 100% a genuine walbro, you also mention no garantees, its second hand, buy new if you want a garantee.

i didnt mention the removal of the walbro sign, as from what i understood it was common thing which eberyone is confirming, and as for peoples word not counting for anything well thats just complete crap, i saw the car iy was removed from and jgm remapped it and i can even tell you wotch garage removed all the items! ive sold pink sti injectors from the same car and also have the sti top mount for sale from the same car.

surely you should know 100% before selling an item and not think its one,

the walbro pump removed from my old sti had walbro stamped on it and nothing shaved off!!

im not saying ure a dodgy seller but the amount of dodgy/fake goods going around just now is murder and i wouldnt be happy buying a part that should be stamped one thing and its not.

not really that strange. id say if you rang subaru asking for price of a new pump, they give you a somewhat inflated price on what a walbro costs of the shelf.

stockcar

on all of the new-age STi cars that had PPP fitted Prodrive suplied a Walbro 255 pump with all markings erased...........

WRX's and earlier cars withh PPP would have had std Subaru pumps so nothing was changed with these
