I was just cleaning out my fuel tank and one of the threads on my fuel pump broke off (see pic below).
The pump works fine but it won't get power without the threads. Is it possible to re-attach what fell off? Maybe via welding or some type of glue or something? Or maybe there is a way to replace it? I would really rather fix this than buy a new pump.
If not, I am assuming the pump will need to be replaced . Why is it that max bmw shows pumps for around $500 whereas this aftermarket pump is only $80?
Any advice on this would be much much much appreciated.
