RobSheffield Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 You have the wrong pump for a Jspec, do a search. It can be bodged but as to whether or not thats a good idea, well, ill leave that to you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 Yep, you have bought a pump for a UK/US spec. You want a GSS342 for a J-spec. GSS341 are for US & UK spec Supras. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyb10supra Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 The fuel pump was from me and brought this in good faith that it was a j-spec pump....how do you know its not a j-spec pump rob? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 Sounds like the wrong pump, check the code on it 342 = J spec TT or NA. 341 = Export (UK) TT Edit - Erm, bit slow on that one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 how do you know its not a j-spec pump rob? Because the filter is facing 180 degrees the wrong way round, like they do on UK specs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmx1lew Posted May 18, 2008 Author Share Posted May 18, 2008 So is this safe to use, If any one has a jspec unit and wants to do a straight swap just for the pump itself i will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homer Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 It might work for a bit (at a risk), but you really need to get the correct pump fitted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmx1lew Posted May 24, 2008 Author Share Posted May 24, 2008 does any one want to swap for there jspec pump? Lew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmx1lew Posted May 24, 2008 Author Share Posted May 24, 2008 just thought if i can get a uk fuel pump cage from a breaker would it fit the jspec tank It probs cheaper then buying another welbro pump and more easy then trying to swap my pump?
