MG TD TF 1500 - SU Fuel Pump

With the arrival of spring in New England I’m finishing up winter projects on my TD. I just checked off one thing on my list, to acquire a backup SU fuel pump. I took advantage of a recent offer by Lawrie Rhoads, who will no longer be restoring fuel pumps, but is focusing his restoration services on horns and wiper motors. Here are the updated details, as listed in the March/April issue of the MGA Register.

FOR SALE: SU fuel pumps. TYPE 'L'
original to MG TA, TB, TC, TD, early
TF, etc. TYPE 'HP' original to late TF,
MGA, MGB, etc. Completely restored and
guaranteed. $95 each, delivered to any
address in all 50 states. Limited time offer.
Send check or money order and car model
to E. Lawrie Rhoads, 7 Knollwood Rd.,
Medfield, MA 02052-2703.

Lawrie can also be reached via e-mail at elawrene@verizon.net.

Note that these are restored original SU fuel pumps. In the true spirit of MG camaraderie, Dave DuBois, who also provides SU fuel pump service, has offered to upgrade these Lawrie Rhoads restored fuel pumps with solid state electronics for a nominal fee. Contact Dave for details (ddubois at sinclair dot net).

Thanks for the heads up Larry. I sent a mail to Lawrie. Great guy. Hopefully I'll get one, and send it off to Dave DuBois. I have dealt with both of these fine gentlemen before. Lawrie on several wiper motors, and Dave has kept me from losing all my Lucas smoke on numerous occassions, with my mods - top notch :-)

Cheers

If one is lucky enjough to have an opportunity for a transaction with Lawrie-------take it! Lawrie is the perfect example of how MG people make owning a vehicle so special.

Larry got the announcement out before I could amend my offer. Yes, I will modify any of Lawrie's pumps for those who wish it to be done, but I have to ask you to wait until after October first. I normally shut down the pump work during the summer so I can get home projects done, but this year I have had to shut down early so we can move my mother in Sacramento up here to Washington state and get her settled in a retirement home close to us. After October first, I'll be glad to take on any of the pumps that anyone purchases from Lawrie. Cheers - Dave
