What does the Labwork fuel pump replace in a Caterpillar backhoe?
▾
The Labwork fuel pump replaces the original electric fuel pump that supplies pressurized fuel from the tank to the engine’s injection system. It is the direct mechanical and electrical substitute for the OEM part number 228-9129, restoring the same flow characteristics and pressure curve required for proper engine operation in the supported backhoe models.
Does the pump include any installation hardware?
▾
The pump is shipped in a sealed box with only the pump itself; no clamps, hoses, or mounting brackets are included. Installers must use the existing hardware on the backhoe, which typically consists of standard bolts and electrical connectors that are already present on the original unit.
How long does installation typically take for a qualified mechanic?
▾
For a technician familiar with backhoe fuel systems, the swap usually takes between 45 and 60 minutes. The process involves disconnecting the battery, removing the old pump, installing the new unit, reconnecting the wiring, and verifying fuel pressure before restarting the engine.
Is the pump compatible with both diesel and gasoline engines?
▾
The pump is designed for diesel-fuel systems, which are standard on Caterpillar backhoes. It is not intended for gasoline-only engines, so using it on a gasoline-powered machine could result in improper fuel delivery and potential damage.
Can I ship the pump directly to my job site?
▾
Yes, Lab Work Auto ships the pump via USPS Priority Mail from California, which typically arrives within 2-3 business days to most U.S. locations. International shipping is not offered, so buyers outside the United States should arrange their own freight forwarding.
