What are these parts?

What are these parts? - 10/11/10 04:04 AM

I found a couple parts in the Imperial today. Can anyone tell me what the relay is for?
I have no idea what the round piece is. It would either be liquid or air. The end of the cylinder is marked Bendix and the end obviously came off at one point in time. I tried to open it up but couldn't get it to budge without getting ugly. The cross hatch pattern on the rubber mount came from the jaws of my vice.

Here's a bigger shot of the relay.

Looks like an electric fuel pump.

With an end cap that comes off in less than a quarter turn?

I know this thing is a boat but I didn't expect to find a bilge pump.

If it's got an internal filter, why not?

Is there a readable part number on it?

There is a number on the plate with the wires. One side says 1922 but I can't read the other side.
The fitting on the left in the picture is marked IN and the opposite fitting is marked OUT.

It's made by Bendix. I didn't know they made pumps. To the best of my knowledge this is not an anti lock brake car. I do not see a computer in the trunk unless it's behind the partition with the rear air unit.

I have no idea what the pump looking thing is, but I don't believe it belongs to the Imp. The relay could be a horn/key buzzer relay or power window relay?

As to being part of anti-lock brakes - not with rubber hose and clamps, at least not on pressure side. It could be a solenoid to shut off a vacuum source, or maybe a tank vent.

I think the "bilge pump" makes the best story.

Holy cow! The redhead did something right. Who'da thunk it?

I'll stick with the bilge pump theory. Kinda odd that the pump would have a removeable end cap.

The pump looking thing with that cap held on the way it is looks similar to the low pressure lift pump off the diesel in my old sailboat , at least the filter I had to change was held in by a cap like that.

dooooh , I didn't read the whole thread I got tree'd by a day or 2 ?

Yes indeed, it is a lift pump, usually for diesel. It is still on the spec for a NYC garbage truck, and it's plumbed with tees and checks to be used as a helper via switch on the dash. The end cap comes off to reveal a screen.

Re: What are these parts? - 10/11/10 08:57 PM

looks just like the elect fuel pump from my 85 nisson king cab

yes it comes off for a filter

the relay looking thing looks like the relay under the dash that turned the pump on as long as it had oil pressure IIRC

looks like it might have been for primming the barge after it had been in dry dock for a while

should be a higher pressure than most other banger pumps like it

A lot of the "land yachts" of that era used this type of pump to stay "afloat". The output was plumbed into an unused vent fitting on top of the yachts fuel tank. A long hose was fitted to the suction side, which was inserted into other vehicles fuel tanks. The pump was then activated till the yachts tank was full, or the object car was empty and another car was located. The only economical way to keep the massive barges afloat.
