Needed a new tank, and one I bought also come with a walboro fuel pump.
Are these expensive/good? Will I notice anything or should I resell it

Yeah they are about as noisy as a normal in tank pump. Good enough fuel pump if the tank came with it might as well use it.

Pmsl it's like a standard text book mod on a scoob. As if there's a world of scoobies out there where the fuel pump is louder than a decatted exhaust.

New tank is £70
This one was brand new (been poser coated, so extra durable) and pump inc for £90 made sense to me

£20 for a walbro sounds good.

no mate, i don't.
he pulled up in work with it one night, i had a look around it and asked what the whine was coming from the rear end. he said it was the walbro fuel pump he had put on.
not everyone has to make stories up to be successful on the internet.
next time he brings it in i'll make a video of it just to please all you internet warriors.

on a serious note might be worth telling him to get it checked out, if it fails could be game over for engine

Sell it on and get a standard one. Sounds like you won't be needing it!
