Ok so I went to do a fuel pump upgrade today only to realise it was far too big physicaly( come off a skyline) so I had a look around at pumps on fleabay and found a felco kit that comes with everything for 80 bucks posted , iv had a search on Google and didn't find much most people just said don't waist your money and get a walbro

So has anyone used these felco pumps?

Is it worth upgrading from the stock fuel pump to a walbro if you haven't done any engine mods? Or is it a waste?

I know walbro are good pumps iv used them before and they can have abit of a hum to them at times but that doesn't bother me, still just wondering if these felco pumps are any good

sorry, didnt really answer the question... TBH ive never heard of em.... on the other hand for an extra $20 ($100 over $80) there are walbro pumps on fleabay... so is it worth risking on an unknown over 20bucks? Just my extra 2c...lol

Felco have been around for years, we used to use them in the past and I would be comfortable to say as good as Walbro. Either is good but be very careful the eBay ones are genuine as lots of copies out there
