Perkins lift pump filter

[GmB]

Can I buy the gauze filter on it’s own?
An internet search only shows a complete rebuild kit, which at £15 isn’t out of the way, but it seams a waste of the other parts.
Mine got totally blocked which distorted the filter.

Pay the 15 pounds and rebuild the pump and make it your last loss. Next week you might be trying to buy the valves separately

Plastic? heat it up enough to distort it back, it's just the lift pump, you'll know where to look if it stops pumping.

If its the common perkins one then waste of money your already half way to a new genuine pump

little plastic one on the inlet? just chuck it away, annoying little things they are.

If you need to the put the perkins water trap filter in line before it whihc is a much better thing, look exactly the same as the old cav filters or grossland 522 type. BUT in stead of a paper filter its a plastic mesh and a massive area so they dont block easy. Cheapest way is buy the cav filter assembly from vapormatic, then replace the paper filter with the perkins mesh type.

Different pump then but you will still find the pump is cheap enough not to both with repair kit.
