Does anyone out there know if I can buy just the pump and not the whole module assembly.

All I have been able to locate is the complete assembly, I'm thinking if just the pump is available , it would be more cost effective.

Any help or other information would be appreciated

Bad news is they only sell them as whole module assembly. Good news is Rock Auto has the best price on them about 238 bucks.

I have seen the pump module for sale in the past - mostly on ebay. Join ACNA and check in with some of the guys there.

Yeah that is still about 100 bucks cheaper then a auto parts store's want for the same part and same brand.

I believe the pump assy is 100. Have you had your inspection cover off yet? Those tanks are known to hold dirt and water on the top and rust out the retaining ring and tank ears. If you have that problem shoot me a PM. You dont want to buy a new tank (last i checked over $500) and good used tanks are hard to find.

Thanks to everbody that replied, Yes it is the pump. I have it out.

I guess I will just have to bite the bullet and buy the module.
This car is a 97 Aurora that has only 70000 miles on it, the oil in it looks like it just came out of the can. Problem is it sat in the Florida sun, needs paint, dash pad is dry and cracked etc., has all the options sun roof etc.

I am going to replace the pump and sell the car. It is good enough to restore or if someone has a real nice one with high mileage, it could be used as a doner car.

I don't have the time to restore it mysef, (to many projects going on)
but I don't want to see it just driven by somebody as a transpotation car and make its way to a junk yard resting place.

Thanks Again

You could always restore the fuel tank with a POR 15 kit.

Good luck selling it.

Not sure what advice you are giving. The tank is plastic.

You mentioned that the tank rusts. If it does then I'm sure a POR 15 or Eastwood kit could fix it.

My post stated it rusts out the retaining ring and ears.

The retaining ring is a separate part. The ears are "insert molded" into the plastic tank.

You cant POR 15 the tank. Expect for the ears sticking up the tank is completely plastic. When the ears rust there is nothing left for the retaining ring to lock to.

As i stated in my post above if anyone would like to know how to save a tank PM me and i am happy to share this and the personal experience i have with repairing and maintaining Aurora's. ACNA is also a great site for info.
