I believe they may well be Delphi (aka Lucas) pumps Nigel. Most DW8s appear to be so equipped. If it's an HDi then Veg. is right out whatever pump is fitted.

DON'T run any Lucas or Delphi pump on veg. Nigel, they object very, very strongly.

Pop up a picture of any pump you want identified..

Thanks Jim,

I have been following www.vegatableoildiesel.co.uk

fuel database where it often warns of lucas pumps failing.

I just wondered which pumps thay have been fitting to older berlingos with a common rail engine as they are not marked like the Bosch pumps.

thanks Again.

Regards Nigel.

2.0 HDis are usually either Bosch or Siemens pumps. However, veg oil is not recommended in any common rail diesel, regardless of the make of pump.
