Fuel pump and accumulator
Please would someone help me identify the following parts? I believe 1, which leaks is an accumulator... what's 2? A Pump or filter? Would I have to replace both parts at the same time? Also please recommend a site in the UK or Europe on which I could buy them. Thank you
(I've taken the car to the mechanic, who has stopped the leak temporarily. He's not familiar with Volvos, in fact, mine is one of only 2 or 3 in the area so most people are flying a bit blind) |

Hello.
Picture 1 is the accumulator, item 2 in Picture 2 is the main fuel pump, and the main fuel pump again in Picture 3. I don't know whether an accumulator can be repaired, or bought new, except that I bought a new pump in 2015 from Mister Auto, who have online presences in the UK and on the Continent. A request on the 240 'Wants' page may be fruitful. |

the pump is the larger/longer of the two units and is fed direct from the prepump via a fuel hose about 20mm OD. then a banjo joint to the accumulator (available new) and then a fuel hose about 10mm OD, direct to the filter in the bulkhead. If you are doing any work yourself on the fuel system, make sure you follow the safety protocol.
