Anybody ever used Monkey Jack Evinrude fuel pump for 6hp

[westwind]

quote Bill McNamara:

Larger ones don’t ship to Canada unfortunately, but have ordered the smaller one for a test. Hard to beat that price.
Same problem with the lakes up here right now, but will keep until warmer weather returns!
Thanks for the “heads-up” guys.

This one ships to Canada, the price is a bit high. If you put it in your wish list, you might find the price drops from time to time.

Thanks Westwind, have placed the item on my wish list.
I regularly shop on Amazon, but have yet to try this feature. Not sure about how "the list" works.
Is it a price alert system, or just a personal reference source?

Regardless, not an outrageous price if I needed one this week.

I keep things on my wish list mainly to get enough for free shipping, something I likely need later. I check from time to time for price drops, sometimes common over the winter.

We just like to share. 😀 Melted some snow today with low 50 temps, back to twenties tomorrow.

If you have too many, AND not enough, you're a collector.

UPDATE…#2

Cheapy fuel pump perfect fit !! 😀

just needed longer bolts because of the thicker base and the cowl fit was no issue.

$60 6R74c is ready to go fishing… in May and will be retimed with Richard’s new timing tool when UPS shows up 🙂

total cost
motor $60
new fuel pump … just in case $30
2 coils x $35 CDN $70
4 feet copper wire $10
2 spark plugs $10
Impeller $25
gearcasse oil $4

total .. give or take $ 225 CDN $150 U$D

The fun and satisfaction factor on your 6 hp project… PRICELESS 😀

Any updates on this fuel pump? I’ve been reading some online reviews of the cheap Chinese pumps and they seem to be lacking in the durability department…

[crosbyman]

Since I own and operate a Marine repair shop, I’ve seen quite a few of those cheap fuel pumps. They all eventually have to be replaced with OEM, after the internals fall apart. The check valves are junk. I tried to rebuild one of the larger ones with a BRP kit, and the holes wouldn’t match up. If we are talking about a motor you plan on running very much, I’d at least buy a used OEM pump, such as on Ebay, then install a rebuild kit. That’s a better option IMO, vs. using the cheap stuff. Or, there are many good OMC NOS pumps on Ebay, that are very reasonable in price.
