stuart Posted July 14, 2019 Report Share Posted July 14, 2019 Bosch 996? Stuart Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Steves_TR6 Posted July 14, 2019 Report Share Posted July 14, 2019 (edited) That is what a 996 looks like, but probably other models too. That’s exactly the setup my last car came with, i replaced the cav filter. current car has the same pump but installed outside the boot in the wheelarch area, for cooling ? the number is on one end, long number probably ending 996 !

ntc Posted July 14, 2019 Report Share Posted July 14, 2019 Good pump however it should be below the tank they do not suck very well and will burn out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Fully agree with Neil, and I would replace the pressure side hose (to prv) by a suitable hose with crimped sleeves instead of jubilee clamps. Waldi Quote Link to post Share on other sites
