If a guy in Colombia is asking that question, we're in trouble :twisted: . There should be plenty availability over there.

The other source in the USA could be a forklift parts supply, since the Komatsu engine that some have is the same P, or P40 engine rebadged.

At any of these stores, use 17010-L6200 to search. Around $150.

The fuel pump diaphragm on my 1966 Patrol seems to always fail after an hour of operation. I have not been able to find a local replacement but have just ordered online a tractor parts thanks to the information provided from my earlier post.

MY QUESTION IS - Has anyone replaced the mechanical fuel pump with an electric fuel pump?
Thank you

I have for a while.

My mechanical pump leaked, so until I could I could find replacements parts I ran with an electrical fuel pump.

Since It was only a temporary replacement I purchased an electrical fuel pump via ebay for less than $20 AUD. I wired it directly to the ignition circuit on the fuse box and it pumped when the ignition was turned on.

The G60 ran OK with that connection.

Downside: You could hear the pump run (above all the other G60 noises) and the altmeter needle 'bounced' around. But it worked. I'm sure if you wired it up correctly the altmeter would be fine.

Upside: Quick and dirty solution to no fuel.

Warning: If you had an accident and the engine stalled, the fuel pump would still pump. This could lead to a nasty fire situation. You need to install a mercury kill switch as well.

Here is a replacement part see https://www.ebay.ca/itm/NISSAN-PATROL-G ... SwJdBbIFah Its from Colombia (via Cananda!!!!)
Not sure if I will get there.

Incredible! This looks extremely close to mine. Only difference is the seating and my mid sized G61.
