Go second hand at any wrecker , they can source one for you, or try importing one yourself off ebay or similar.

they said they have never in their years at the service department had to order in the part, so it seems it dosnt happen often
That must have the 3000cc engine in it. You could proberly get a second hand pump then get it reconditioned and installed and still get a smaller bill at the end.

you should run flashlube or similar diesel additive to prevent destruction of diesel pumps. also crutual is the change of fuel-filters i would change em ever 10,000km or once ayear no matter what.

noway im not going to,i had to take it to the holden dealership so they could plug their computer in to diagnose the problem.thats when they told me 6000 for a new one.my dad has a mate who is a mechanic who said they would get me one at cost, but thats still over four grand.im wondering how much a secondhand one would be(not reconditioned)

your injectors will be rooted next from ulsd and no lube. you want to fit DLC injectors if possibile. morreys seem to have a good diesel lube also i will have to test that one soon with cetan booster.

$6000 would probably buy one of the fuel pumps on a gas station forecourt.

the problem is new pumps of the old generations are hugely expensive you would need secoundhandand then making sure its not getting nuked it is the ultra low sulfur diesel that dont lubricates enough plus it also draws water with the fuel. Do research "ULSD-problems" plenty on the net The correct additive will prevent any problems best so far is flashlube only thing that dos not do is bring cetan rating hiher from diesel. but does the rest like protect from corrosion lube and keeps seals soft .
