Hello Gentlemen, I went back to the same Nissan dealer, this time hauling a repair manual and the broken fuel pump with me, and I got much better information. (Getting the right person makes a difference.) They are recommending a Bosch fuel pump (part number 69616) for the L24(E) engine. I've ordered one from www.rockauto.com, and I'll let you if it works. Thanks, JoeyM

Thank you, Gentlemen. I appreciate your replies. I have not yet tried a US based forum, but I just returned from the local nissan dealer. They cannot get an original pump. My local auto parts store can get an equivalent pump, but it is prohibitively expensive, hence my asking for alternatives. :wink: I'm hoping that Lurch and Toecutter are correct; i.e. that any electric pump will work as long as I know that it has sufficient pressure for the EFI. I'm looking at alternatives right now. I will let you know what I find. One forum I googled up on the net had a post saying that that the fuel pressure exceeds 50 psi. This seems odd to me since the local nissan dealer said most fuel pumps - they had no knowledge about this specific pump - run around 37 psi. Again, I thank you for your assistance. JoeyM

Hi All, Do you have any suggestions for a good electronic fuel pump to fit outside the tank on an EFI-equipped L24? I have a 1983 Datsun I'm trying to get running (Model WHD910AEUCS[*], sold here in Florida back in the day as a "Maxima") that needs a fuel pump The car has an L24(E) engine. What would you recommend as a replacement pump for this car:?: I've seen Zeddophile's Aug. 11, 2005 post where he says that his L28E is using a pump from a VL Commodore.... http://www.viczcar.com/forums/about135.html ...but that's not the same engine, and I'm not sure if the Commodore was sold stateside (or what it was called if it was sold here.) Thanks for reading this. I'm sorry if my question is inappropriate JoeyM --- * - Please don't crucify me over the fact that this is not a Z-car. I'll apologize in advance in case if asking such a question is considered to be in bad form.
