These are supposed to be of reasonable quality, however you may have to
add a small accumulator in the pressure line to compensate for the air
chamber as used in many SU-pumps. They are quite common in the Netherlands.
There is also an Australian SU look-a like with a black plastic coil
housing. The make eludes me at the moment due to age I suppose. Quality
is supposed to be OK as well. Both pumps are electronic.
Contrary to the usual replacements these pumps stop when the max.
pressure has been reached, similar to the SU pumps.

My car had a generic 'modern' plastic pump which worked fine
but isn't<br>
quite kosher so I got a new SU pump from Burlen and that is
where I<br>
discovered the diaphragm issue. It really does let quite a bit
of<br>
petrol smell through- enough for me to take it apart and look
for the<br>
leak. Burlen sent a replacement diaphragm which is, of course,
no<br>
better.<br>
<div><br>
</div>
If you have a used 60 year old triple layer diaphragm for sale
I'd be<br>
interested in upgrading my new one!<br>
<div><br>
</div>
The best design I have seen is an Italian copy that had a
single layer<br>
clear plastic diaphragm and also a plastic toggle inside the
points<br>
which is so much simpler than the mousetrap. Been in a Bn2 for
longer<br>
than I have been alive and only needed a replacement inlet
fibre<br>
sealing washer to stop a leak.<br>
