Yes I know this has been :deadhorse: . But I've looked and looked and searched And still can not find the thread I'm looking for. Some one posted the info for the company that is making the pumps new and that will sell to us. Does anyone know the info I'm looking for or the thread?????????????????????????????????

And you can use a heater fuel pump in line for $50..same as fuel transfer pump on some of the M series with dual tanks.

They ask for a part number and all I could find was the number for just the pump. So I assume that this is just the pump.

Is this for the M135 in your photo?
If so I have NOS pumps for $85.00 plus shipping.

RE: Re: Intank fuel pump

I contacted them too . Dave A. reply was
I would need more information to identify the pump. Do you have a NSN or
other part numbers?
Anyone know it?

I don't know what is offered but their web site shows a photo of the complete pump(w/tank mount,hose and fuse cover).
I took mine apart today for a look. Fuse was blown, screen partially clogged. pump ran with new fuse. Press test was 6psi.

What is the correct fuse (amp rating)?Thanks .JimK

Re: RE: Intank fuel pump

The pump I got from TNJ Murray lasted only a few hours. I'm not too happy and I do not want to send them another chunk of my bank account right now.

RE: Re: RE: Intank fuel pump

I had to send my pump back to memphis 3 times before I got one that would last more than a week. Mine makes 7psi cold fuel and about 4-5 with hot fuel.

What were some of the problems you were experiencing with the pump itself?

Did TNJ Murray give you any grief? Did they acknowledge there being a problem with their pumps? Did you end up with one of their pumps in the end? (...and I don't mean that in the figurative sense).

I like the in-line pump that is available, but I'm wondering if "lifting" the fuel and "pushing" it with the original in-tank style pump isn't the best way to move the fuel without air. Won't the "in-line" type of pump lose prime and draw air initially?

Are there any concerns with the in-line version other than the discussion about flow rate which seems to be sufficient if I get the one from OD Iron.

I know, I know! But I think the horse likes it! :wink:

RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: Intank fuel pump

I also have been haveing problems with TJ Murry pumps! Found out that they are 12 volt pumps with a resistor in the fuse holder! He sent me Two!!!! both the same, lasted about 20 minutes! Then tells me he hasnt had any problems with the pumps! Then i figure out that they are'nt 24 volt pumps, send him quite a lenghty e-mail about selling us junk parts!!!!!!
Next day I recieve an e-mail from john saying that he will send me a original military 24 volt take out!
So we shaLL See what come's of this ,this coming week,
I aslo ordered an in line from OD Iron,just to have on hand,Because I'm tired of fighting with these garbage pumps that I've been recieving,I fthe take out pump from Murry give's me prblems,then i will have the inline in place very quickly!
I deal with TJ Murry because they are close to me and the shipping time is one day or same day, most of the stuff has been great, but these pumps are absolutly no good, foriegn product that are'nt the right voltage pump, If you step the fuse up past mdl 3amp ,then it blows the resistor out!!!! This happened to both of the pumps that i was sent!! I keep complaining and he sent me a seacond pump, but did not want to deal with it after that! but with some persistance and facts, then i was offered the 24 volt take out pump,
I'm sorry that i didnt post this sooner, and save you the problems of buying a bad pump!!

I took a chance on a used take out from an E-bay seller. It ran for about two weeks or so. A lot of take outs are probably removed for a reason. I won't take a chance on another. I picked up a NIB pump for cheap ($30) but have not have a chance to get it in yet. I tried the inlines. the ones I found worked well for easier starting after long idle periods, but seemed to starve the engine for fuel under high demand. Dave

I did some non-scientific testing with my 530C (M45A2 fire truck). This truck, even with the water tanks empty, very much outweighs a M35A2. At full throttle cruising, I can reach up and flip off the main power switch, and the truck perceptively slows.

the pump would just quit running alltogether. I purchased mine from memphis. every time so far they just sent me another.
