This is a properly restored genuine 25 HP - German Pierburg Fuel Pump. Each restored German Pierburg Fuel Pump is first completely disassembled and inspected for viability in our workshop. Next, it's ultrasonically cleaned, taken down to bare metal and resurfaced.
All hardware is zinc plated. Each pump is fitted with brand new, custom-crafted superior quality diaphragms, (Effbe, which is the OEM supplier to VW) that are formulated with nitrile rubber to withstand modern gasoline blended with ethanol.
Our German Pierburg Fuel Pumps also have the reed suction valve replaced and reseated with a Genuine Porsche unit that far surpasses the original.
Finally, pumps are reassembled on a jig for correct preload the main diaphragm. This ensures fuel delivery is correct to factory specs.
25 HP pumps may or may not include a brass filter plug, depending on cores we're able to import.
All gaskets are included, as well as two feet of cloth braided German fuel hose for proper installation.
I hired Air-Cooled Artifacts to source and restore a 25 hp fuel pump for my early Beetle. Finding one was a challenge in itself. Eric's an artist, and the best at what he does. The component works perfectly, and looks as if it came off the showroom from Volkswagen of Germany.
