Why not give Scotty a call at BD and outline the issue - regardless of whether you elect to go with them or not, they will likely have come across this already.Originally Posted by brooks

Pmd- pump mounted driver.
They were fitted on the later chev engines with stanadyne ds-4 pump. Basically they have some basic electronics for control of fuel. It has a small loom with 4-6 wires from memory. It is fairly common for these to be remote mounted as they are factory fitted to the pump and the heat just kills them.
But I am unaware of brunswick using these as last time I spoke to them they removed them and just put them to the side and used the earlier ds-2 pump as they are mechanical and easier as such for them to use with their conversions.

That could be handy Mat, wonder if they'd maybe sell them cheap if they're just laying around. I guess they might also flog them back to the yanks to recoup some costs. Just thinking if ever our pumps were to crap themselves could be an option if they're any good when installed and setup correctly?
this has a mechanical lift pump on RH front of block. appears to be working ok.
the link is quite interesting, thanks. mine runs good when started but will that cause no start when hot.
thanks will definitely carry a water bottle, how will water go on the heads though, hope they won't crack.
Ok, I am out on this one. Mine is electrical lift pump on chassis rail, pumps at 14psi.
I think he means to just pour water on the injector pump housing.

Will be fine mate. Just use room temperature water. And pour it on slowly.
I do but brooks concern is warranted at the ip is in the valley of a 6.5 chev. So pouring water on it means water in the valley.
