I've got an 831 that the original cube fuel pump is working only when it feels like it. I have 24v to it when it decides it doesn't want to run, so pretty sure it is the pump that quits. I had some replacement e1074 pumps but I have used them all up on 802/803 projects. Anyone tried the e8131 on these?

Ive used an 8131 in the aux fuel position on the 802/803s, worked just fine. I have only 1 or 2 backup E1074s for my personal use, but otherwise I have 8131s in stock for customer machines. Got in a 2 hour tier reset 802 with a never connected facet cube pump... stripped the wires and crimped in in and no go.

I actually reached out to the OEM on the pumps months ago, and they wouldnt even entertain a 100PC order to make it again....

The Facet pumps were so hit and miss. This 831 only has about 270 hours on it and I got it fresh from reset with 2.5 on the meter. It had both primary and aux pumps that looked brand new. Sure didn't last long!

I'll order a couple of the e8131 to have on the shelf then. Thanks!
