Default Walbro 255 Fuel Pumps ?!?!?!?

Are they all the same ? reason i ask, if you say, look on ebay for subaru walbro pump they are say, £70, if you look for nissan or other makes they can be alot cheaper.

So,they look the same, so,is a 255 a 255 no matter what car its for ?

cheers

I would imagine they are made specific for each manufacturer. Connectors and mounting etc but av never fitted one so could be wrong

cheers, i know there can be different mounting types, but fitment into the scoob doesnt require any fitting kit as the pump housing has the fitting kit if that makes sense

advertised nissan one






subaru one

Nissan Fitment are the same as Subaru fitment on most applications the difference is the filters, There are 3 versions on these pumps, and the difference is wether the inlet is inline with the output pipe.

o.k, cool, that makes it a bit clearer, i get what your saying, so i can see in the pics above the nissan ones inlet (filter) and outlet do NOT line up, whereas the subaru one does, is that what you mean ?

Yes, you see some nissan models use the Subaru version pump while some don't so you have to make sure you get the right one.

The one in the picture on our link in the correct version for the impreza, again legacy models use the ones where the inlet is offset from the outlet
