SU logo fuel pump sealing tape

Post by rogerotto66s »

Just rebuilt my SU fuel pump for my ‘66 S (and it works!) and wanted to finish it off with the SU logo sealing tape pictured below.

The part number seems to be AUB612.

The one source I did find is out of stock ($3) and when they do restock the price will be $18.10!!

I have seen sealing tape for replacement fuel pumps but I believe an original fuel pump had this blue tape with these words.

Is anyone aware of another source which is more reasonable priced?

I did not see the part number you listed on the Burlen website. Therefore, you may want to contact Burlen directly and ask about the tape. In the U.S. you could also contact Heritage Garage who may have some. You may also want to contact Nicholas Upton at Seven as he/they may have some. It is at least worth a few phone calls.

Somerford sell a reproduction SU pump tape, I have used one before but don't have any photo's. The image on their site isn't very good, maybe best to ask them first :

7Ent is a no.
Will check Heritage and Somerford (their photos are always bad).
Awaiting response from Burlen.
Miniphernalia is possible ($3 + $14).
su-rebuilders was the source I found ($18 + $0).
Thanks

They are available on ebay > https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_from ... r&_sacat=0
But I think most appear to use a plastic tape which is not period correct (but may be similar to what is used on new pumps now), the yellow was for reconditioned pumps the blue was OE (new) ;)
