08 xpeed 250i fuel pump? By beefking69 (Read 1,009 times)

Can pickup a 08 xpeed 250i for next to nothing....guy said it needs a fuel pump and only one ive seen is 275$

Only reason i want this is for the engine so i can do an engine swap on my crossfire 150cc dune buggy.

Any ideal how much pressure the stock pump puts out and where i could find something like a in line pump that would work?

Get it, fuel pumps are relatively cheap. If the gas tank on the buggy was above the carb you do not even need a pump.

Injection needs a pump,,,, I'm sure any decent auto parts store pump with 20 psi would work in a pinch with a tunable regulator If an original replacement can't be sourced

Thx for the info guys.Ill see if i can find a inline pump and regulator

$275 for a gas pump sounds ridiculous to me. I replaced my gas pump for about $20 or less. If I could remember where and when I would look it up.

Cosrrection: I looked up my fuel pump purchase on my PC. I paid $45.98 which included the packing and shipping so I probably paid closer to $35. My purchase was for vacuum fuel pump for a 250cc engine. I was also looking for physical size for my scoot. Probably could had done with one of the smaller sized ones but mounting in space gets difficult so I looked for a physical size in particular.

Also found a listing for all kinds of fuel pumps and some are really low priced.

Question is will those supply enough pressure? This is fuel injected.

Guess we need some one with EFI experience to chime in. Possibly you might check to see some jap EFI bikes or scooters with it to list check out specs in a service manual for the same. I doubt if one brand is going to be much different than another.

I just checked the manual for the majesty I used to own, it specifies 35 to 36 lbs.

IN my research 2.5 bar or 30-35 pounds is needed,,and 2 gallon per hour rated pump

Check ebay motorcycle parts search for efi fuel pumps. Quickly checking I find some starting at $19.95 $29 95 $39 and so on. I would buy one for as small an engine as you find or close to 250 cc. A large engine pump probably won't be happy feeding a 250.

Ok thx for that info guys. Any clue where to find the engine code? Ive looked all over and cant find it.

I try again for EFI fuel pumps. Was not thinking EFI before.
