high flow fuel pump internals... $249??
- Thread starter Fat_Dave
- Start date
First off, your engine isn't going to blow up without this if you don't do other mods that demand a lot more fuel. The other part is those little pieces of metal are very precision made bits and you can't get them anywhere else. If you need them (which I don't think you do) you gotta pay the price.
P.S. Mr Lil Guy has a competing solution, but you have to buy the whole pump from him.

well regardless theres still alot of people with stock motors going pop... id rather be on the safe side and protect my $25,000 investment
woudln't the safe side be keeping it as the engineers had designed it?

You know... you may be onto something here my dear Watson... (first)

well they must not have designed it too well if its blowing up
Fat Dave: I say it's worth the money, you won't notice a power increase. but it's a "safe" mod. Worth every penny IMO.
Mazda's fuel pump is just junk. There are nearly stock cars that are running out of fuel. (like me). Especially when it's cold out. It's well worth the cost even if you aren't planning on modding that much. This will be my next mod as well.

im glad someone agrees withe me... i wasnt looking for a power increase i just dont want my motor to blow before i actually get to "drive" the car.. i see you have a quote from TeamZX2 in your sig.. are you a former zx2 owner??
well they must not have designed it too well if its blowing up
Please tell me the total number that have "blown up".
If it blows up, Mazda will give you a new one (unless you have applied mods like a fuel pump kit).im not sure how many.. all im sayin is i dont want my motor to blow up

yea but i want to avoid it if possible because then i have to go without my car till they drop a new one in

If you actually read threads you'd know that it only happens to folks that are modding. Why would you assume that yours would suddenly blow for no other reason? It's a waste of time and money as a first mod.

The fully modded guys are more likely to blow, but stockers are going too...

No more stockers having problems than any other mfg. I call BS on all the above people. They joined a big Mazda forum then they posted their story so Mazda reps (who do read these forums) see how innocent they are. They didn't join for the community as evidenced by their post counts. I stand by my statement.

I did a quick search and came up with three examples in about two minutes, how does that even suggest more or less than any other manufacturer? Without big picture numbers from Mazda or a dealer, it's impossible to say whether the numbers are abnormal. I'd suggest that putting a rod through a block on any car is a rare occurrance, but that's just me.
And why would you join a community, so that a mazda rep knows your situation. Contrary to whatever BS you have been fed, unless you post some personal information about yourself there is no way to identify a person with just a screen name. Especially since Mazda was covering the damage in those instances. For example:
When asked if the cam timing slip was anything I or they could have caused the dealer said the manufacturer sets the timing at the factory. Whether it is SOP to test, verify or validate the manufacturer I dont know. I can say that through this whole experience the dealership, Walzer Mazda in MN has been great with everything from keeping me informed, rental, follow up etc.... and as it should be. This considering I didnt even buy the car there. They also called me and told me they talked to Mazda about my situation and Mazda agreed to pay for an extended warranty on the engine to 100K. This does not regain any faith in the car, but at least I have faith in the dealer, that they will look out for me and take care me because of my history with them. Unless they tell me "you need to take that s*** back to OK where you bought it." lol
But whatever. I submit. Your logic is superior and I only hope I understand one day...
