Can not vouch for the particular pumps to fit your Petter, but the Indian built Mico or Mico-Bosch replacements supplied for Lister CS and others appear to be of excellent quality and well priced. Believe they are made under licence from Bosch, so have a standard to uphold. Others here may be able to relate their experience with Indian injection gear, but it seems largely positive. Regards,

Toys include- Lister CS 8/1, Lister VA SOM plant and some Aussie engines.

Providing the Aluminium body of your pump is in good condition, a rebuild kit may another otion to consider.

Here is a suitable example:

Replacing the fuel injector pumps wholesale with Indian 'equivilant' item, can be a minefield. Because over time the Indians have carried out all manner of modifications to the pump design to suit there clone engines, one well known example would be no provision on the end of the fuel control rack for an overload stop.
