Walbro 340M to 340 replacement - Problems?
#1
![Default](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/icons/icon1.gif)
Hello,
I run the old racetronix duel Walbro intank, 2 GSS340M pumps. It worked well for a few years, but one pump has decided to call it quits. I need to replace the pump, but Walbro discontinued the GSS340M pump and now only provides the GSS340 with a slightly different inlet.
Can I replace the GSS340M pump with the normal GSS340 without any problems? Has anybody done this and lived to tell about it? Do I need to purchase or modify anything to get the normal-style GSS340 to work in place of the GSS340M?
Any insight before I go diving into my fuel system again would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Kevin

The only difference between the two is the diameter on the inlet , which means you will just need the correct filter socks for each pump . We have plenty of them in stock if you want to upgrade both pumps to the gss340 with the right filter socks or even just one .
