Is the petrol pump in the k series freelander the same as fitted to k series rover cars?

yes,I think.

yes,I think.


Thats the problem i think it may be the same as well but does anyone know for sure.

The last one I looked up had a part number that superceded a lot of older ones,including MGR K ones.

I can't see it being the same, the pump on the cars is built into the sender unit, these are different from car to car and the Freeloader tank is nothing like a car one.

I've checked it out a bit with no joy.

They are completely different.

No sorry, but a trip to the stealers in order:humbug:
Here is a Freelander fuel pump

Worthy of note here, early Freelanders suffered from a design fault in the "in pump" filter, where an o ring failed, causing fuel in the line to syphon back to the tank, meaning every time you started the car, it was as if you had run out of fuel, necessitating prolonged cranking in order to prime the injectors.
Hope this helps

Handy info. but about three months too late for the OP.

If the pump is electrical would it not prime up by waiting a few seconds with the ignition on.
I can't see that cranking the engine would be of much help as it would make the pump run slower with the voltage drop, wouldn't it ????
