422 Robin eng...problems AGAIN.

BobRip,

Yes, identical! Exactly.

Idabe,

Do you have more information on the Honda fuel pump you used as a replacement for your Robin? Do you know the part number or the Honda engine for which it was designed? Is it metal or plastic?

Thanks

Dale

DHS,
The pump is plastic (black with a smail round bronze screen in the back). It is exactly what was on my PT-422.
The tractor parts place I bought it at has this number: 16700-2L80B. I don't know if that is the parts place in-house number, or the Honda dealer part number.
No, I don't know what Honda eng. it was designed for.
As I said before, when I told the guy what I needed, he said, "They are all the same, just different prices from different companies."

Also, an update:
It (PT-422 w/Robin eng.) is running better than it ever has!

I don't know if that pump was slowly going bad, but I am very happy with the performance the last two times I used the tractor.

Idabe,

Thanks for the information. The original fuel pump on my Robin is metal. Mine is seven years old. The one you found looks like an inexpensive backup.

Thanks,

Dale

The new one I got was also plastic. I am keeping it as a spare.

I also have a plastic spare. Pretty inexpensive.
