Can you swap the TD pump top onto a NA pump? Will is provide the same fueling?

Well if you have a Eco diesel, you can swap out the top and make it a "real" TD pump.  I would expect that if you are in the rebuild phase of a pump you could swap out / in the appropriate parts.  Don't know for sure though.

The ECO pump was actually an 8mm plunger and so simply swapping the top will not make it a TD pump which came with a 9mm plunger.  A TD pump onto a n/a pump should work.  I haven't run one that way yet, but have heard of others doing it and can't see any reason it wouldn't work.

8mm? wow... So the NA pump is a 9mm? Or should be, the numbers on the pump should tell me what size it is.

yeah the na pumps are actually better than the eco pumps... seems like most people don't know that though
