Title: difference injection pump 4,5,6 cylinder
Post by: ruben on December 13, 2010, 02:22:35 pm: Hi all,

I would like to know the difference between the 4,5 and 6 cylinder VE pump. Is this just the cam plate, plunger and head?

Grtz

Ruben

Post by: R.O.R-2.0 on December 14, 2010, 09:39:21 am: the head, plunger, and cam plate will all be different, along with some other parts maybe.

and its a good bet that the governors are all different, unless all pumps in question are vw pumps..

Post by: ruben on December 14, 2010, 09:43:01 am: So it should be possible to use the pumpbody of a 4 cylinder and make, with the use of the right head, plunger and camplate, a 6 cylinder pump out of it?

Post by: R.O.R-2.0 on December 18, 2010, 11:20:54 am: it makes sense. i forgot the gov assy is above the roller cage. and on a 4banger pump, the rollers are spaced just right, as to not interfere with the gov assy.
