2001 Land Rover Discovery II - Se7 - No Secondary Air - Fuel Pump W/ Advanced Evaporative Loss System (AEL)


I had a hard start, replaced my gas cap, the hard start went away for a while, then suddenly came back. I removed my passenger rear jump seat, pulled some panels, and pushed the carpet over and found the top half of my pump is cracked. It looks like I could glue where the leak was to fix it, but the pump is 13 years old, the fuel sending unit is reading incorrectly (really annoying), and I'm sure the fuel filter after 13 years has some stuff in it. I just noticed when looking around for a pump they are like 400$+ for the pumps that are AEL, was wondering if anyone has had any luck finding a cheaper one?


Thanks,
Dane

Spent 385$usd on a new AEL pump, along with the new AEL seal for 20$, my grand total was 411.05$ shipped. I'm hoping it'll come tomorrow, if not I'll be out of my rover until Tuesday.


Thanks though,
Dane.

Yeah, I didn't know there was two different pumps at first. I wish there wasn't, the price on the pump differentiates in price about $50 and the seal I guess is also special...so an extra 20$ compared to the normal fuel pump seal. I'm in a non-LEV Disco so I pay more for a fuel pump but people with Discos with the SAI have to buy a cheaper one and a air pump eventually, so I guess its still more than I had to pay (rationalizing a 400$ fuel pump is what I'm doing).........

Just for information, the pumps are listed in Microcat as follows:

WFX101060 is for European, Japan, ROW but not Gulf States or Canada/USA/Mexico

WFX101070 is for SAI on all Canada/USA/Mexico and without SAI up to VIN YA290236

Then it reverts to the European pump WFX101060 for Canada/USA/Mexico from 1A290237.

The seal ESR3806 is only about $10 or so, superceded by WGQ500020.

The retaining ring ESR3808 is about the same price.

Both the seal and the locking ring are identical parts for ALL pumps and countries, don't be fooled by someone telling you that NAS vehicles are different, they are not.
