1998 v70 GLT fuel pump part number?

Post by **stephansvolvo** » 12 Dec 2013, 22:45

Does anyone know the part number for the fuel pump and the best place to purchase it?

The best way to do a fuel pump job on these cars is to read the DIYs then buy a Bosch 69693 fuel pump insert. It is usually cheapest from Amazon (use the Amazon link at the top of the page to give MVS a small kickback when you buy there), about $95 the last time I checked.

There are cheaper fuel pump alternatives, but I wouldn't go with an insert other than Bosch or Walbro and the Walbros are reportedly a bit noisy.

1+ to Bosch Fuel Pump, about $90-$100, and it will last you another 150K.

While there, make sure you go over these DIYs:

All of these parts look like the one I purchased and it has this hard plastic case around it. It wouldn't come out. It cost me 220.00. The pump insert I pulled out didn't have any casing around it. What to do you guys think? If I figure out to post a picture I will.

If you bought a preassembled pump in the white casing, then you are good to go. Just install it.

I took off the black casing and it fit like a glove and it seems to work. Outside temp when I changed it was around 50. It was straight forward.
Thanks for all the help guys!~
