  • The fuel pump on my Suzuki Samurai was dumping out oil so it needed replacing. Turns out the one made by import direct did not fit correctly so I had to use a napa brand. Also it is very important to insert the pump as level as possible to make sure everything lines up.

    Lot's of good tips, I know nothing about Samurai's, didn't even realize it had a mechanical fuel pump. And also, rear brake cylinders and wheel studs... that's a couple more items off of the ole checklist. Another informative Vid, Thanks Doug. In other news....Cal needs window latches for his tin-top rear side glass. 🌵😎

      Thanks. Ya slowly learning about samurais and realizing I prefer trackers. I had to use a window latch last week but I think I have one left. I will try to remember to look.

    I concur, O'reilly fuel pump does not fit. Good video. Thanks.

      Hopefully others will find out before they spend the money on a pump that won't work.

    Good info. Did you try to find out why O'Reillys is wrong?

      The guys said that they looked into it and did say that I wasn't the first person to return it for that reason, but that's all they found.

      I have heard that sometimes it takes a couple tries for it to seat correctly

      Unfortunately those ones just don't fit. I used one I got from Napa and had no issues

      @daviddavenport4766 do you have the hose inhooked.from the carburetor to verify? Also the pump must go in as straight as possible otherwise the rod can slip above the pump lever. The contact patch is pretty small.
