    Andy & All,

    Regarding the 912ULS fuel pump from CPS.........I see two pumps listed 1) 881-360 for $98 ; and, 2) 893-110 for $205

    Any Idea what the difference is?

    Sincerely,

    Didn't look but I suspect the lower price is for the bare pump only and the higher price for the pump with Rotax fuel lines pre-attached.

    I think the 893-110 is the new/improved pump they came out with a little while back. Maybe the other one is the old pump?

    I am not looking forward to doing the hose replacement. Where did you get your hose? Are you just using automotive fuel lines? I think my annual is do in March. Ugh

    I purchased an oetiker clamp tool and oetiker hose clamps on Amazon or Ebay. I was surprised how easy they are to use, definitely 2 thumbs up.

    I got stuff from all over. Ordered the water lines from the UK as they had the same metric sized gates hose for WAY cheaper than the usual sources. I took the opportunity to replace the FWF fuel lines with new custom made teflon hoses that won't need replaced again! Had Tom at TSFlightlines make them up. Makes for a very nice installation. Then I got the rest of the parts from CPS.

    The 881-360 is what I ordered. It's the new fuel pump with no lines. Just comes with bare slip on fittings and new Okiter clamps. I ended up replacing the in and out fittings with AN flares and put firesleved teflon hoses on the pump.
