hi guys

i have buy cp3 from floor it.
now after driving 5 days the pump leak.
the fittings ar all ok!
the leak if bottom near engine around torx screw.

anybody have same problems?
i have send the pump to bosch serval in switzerland to search the leak.

chris

 

You may just need to tighten the 3 bolts up on the back of the pump.

 

no if fuel leak not engine oil!

 

I think he means the FCA may be loose????

 

no fca if ok

the leak if ner to engine under the pump.
around this screws.

this screw if not very deep the orignal screw on stock pump if deeper in the pump.

 

That plug is essentially the same as the cylinder head on the engine. It serves two seperating fuel dynamics. First supply fuel is routed to the delivery valve, under the plug. If the leak is low pressure, than a replacement "O" ring will do the trick, you can even stack 2 onto the plug. If it is a high pressure leak, then the delivery valve is not sealing. I know John, personally and we do our mods in the same manner. I will call him and see if it is alright for me to PM you and tell you what to look for, and how to fix it, if it isn't the "O" ring.

 

hi
i have send the pump to bosch serval here in switzerland, the guy there can test the pump of leaks.but he have next week time to test the pump.

Understandable that your dissapointed but John at Floor it has a sterling reputation so I am sure you will be taken care of when all is said and done. Sorry for your troubles.

 

the problem if i in switzerland!! not very near to usa!
i say nothing about john i have read here nothing bad about floor it ,thats i have say yes to this pump. i have pay stage 1 and he have send me stage 3pump about the long waiting but i can not drive with this pump.thats plus for the dealer he have me send stage 3 for stage 1 price.

i hope the bosch serval can fix the problem

 

This may be a problem with one of the torque bolts? A buddy of mine had the kinda the same problem, what happen was when the pump was machined the mill just took a small nick out of the threads, Result was that the pumped leaked really bad, but it did this from start up with the new pump, not over days, John over nighted him a new bolt and problem fixed, I hope this is differant cuz John thought that there where only a few out like that and fixed. Goodluck,
