Hi,

As the title says I found out last night reading my KE1X aircon manual. If the KE1X car was fitted with factory aircon they also installed a factory electric fuel pump in the boot.

 

So for some reason on the KE1X with aircon they ditched the diaphragm pump and used an electric one in the boot.

 

Below is 2 scans of the manual showing the fuel pump exploded view and the number and part list page showing how the number matches up from the exploded view to fuel pump.

 

Also notice above on the fuel pump exploded view page the image outline of the motor showing how the fuel line goes to a bracket and on that there is a regulator mounted and then it goes to the carby.

 

So there you go just another useless K corolla fact.

They have the electric fuel pump with the air con because the K motor can't run both at the same time, Not enough POWAH!!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Kidding, The K motor ain't so bad.

probably close!!.....most like because the air con hangs off the motor were the fuel pump normally is. Both won't fit on that side of the engine. :y:

My 5k has air con that works and i can notice the drop in power but i can also notice it in mums Camry and my Corona when it works.

 

So where did the ke10 air con system mount, Same as all other ke's ?

Hi,

Yes Des the KE1X aircon pump mounts on the same spot same mount even as all other corolla aircons I have seen.

 

And all 3 KE30 I have seen and helped strip the aircon out of had a mechanical fuel pump usually with just a different fuel line on the pump, so Taz a mech pump will fit a K motor with aircon. But it seems KE1X they just dropped the pump put a plate on the block the ran an electric pump.

 

But the bright side is at least I know how to run my wiring loom if I go for an electric fuel pump so I can say it was factory kind of :y:..lol
