      Hello,

      I need 3-4 OMC fuel pumps but the OEM is expensive. Does anyone have luck with these Chinese made pumps.

        I have used  them with success   some don’t like them  being Chineese  presumably. Their needle and seat  don’t fit to well for some reason   so I just use  floats, needle packing,  top plugs etc…

        Carb kits seems more an issue with  fuel  gaskets melting into orange goo.

          I’ve used several of these pumps without any issues

            I’ve used the Chinese pumps several times with no problems but I’ve also had one that was no good right out of the box and another one that crapped out after just a couple of hours running time.

              I think this solution is the best approach to have OEM OMC pump. I will buy the Chinese Pump and OMC pump repair kit. Then put the OMC part on the Chinese housing.

              Now I will have OMC pump! with the cost less than purchase OEM.

                sounds  ok but remember the kit does not seem to incluse  the critical  center check valve section…just..mostly diaphragms

                  I don’t know about it but it is good to know.  So the center check valve is critical to make the OEM superior than Chinese made.

                    well they are the only mecanical components aside from  the  nitrile gaskets, springs and mushrooms .   I think most failures are  likely  gaskets not the valves but…. Murphy lurks

                    pump covers also crack if to tight.
