FS: IC Pump
I have a brand new never been used IC Pump that I purchased from Ford (ford Lightning IC Pump). I paid $89 + $12 shipping. I will sell it for $70 + Shipping cost.
I just purchased it on 8/23/07 thinking that it would fit on my CL55, but as you guys here know (I guess, except for me), it doesn't.:crybaby2:
My stupidity is your gain, so let me know if you want the pump.
The part number is 8501L54.

Just picked up the pump and the wiring harness for the Bosch. How much fluid will leak out when replacing, and how much to replace, when and where. Any info appreciated (The only topic not touched in the overview)

What causes the high IA temps? Obviously the pump because thats what we are replacing, but why?

of coolant, and have 2 gallons of distilled water, I went ahead
and did a coolant flush (30 minutes of waiting to leak out
through the reservoir and I had a compressor pumping air
into the reservoir on top. I managed to get 2.5 gallons of
liquid out of the system (includes what droped out when
I disconnected the original pump)

Thanx for a great topic!
I have a question though. Any one can help identify the relay and a fuse for i/c pump. I cannot find their location in the user manual

Fuse 23
Sorry for taking so ling to reply - I don't visit this board very often.
The Fuse is a 5A ornage blade fuse in my 02 SLK 32.
It blew again this weekend - but I carry a bag of fuses - 20 seconds later all 354BHP was back on tap.
I don't know why it fuses, but at 5p for a fuse it's not a problem to me.
good luck

Went to try and replace mine this weekend, hoping that I could get a pump from a dealer around here - $350+ was the cheapest 
Definitely going to order one off the website mentioned in here and wait for it, same with the connector, and I guess I'll just have to deal with my 7.1s 0-60 times in this weather with the pump going
For reference, there's a bunch of different part numbers going around for the same pump, but I think I have them narrowed down :
Bosch P# - 0392022002
Ford dealer P# - F8YZ8501AA
Generic P# - 8501L54
and the connector's P# is WPT717 (Thanks Jerry) Correct me if I'm wrong on any of those.
Also, would it hurt to do my air filters while the pump is going, so long as I don't go blasting around in the car once I get 'em installed?

These "spring-loaded" clamps on the hoses - are they the same type of clamps that bind the Y-Splitter hoses directly after the air-boxes? If so, with a little help from my dad (shade-tree mechanic ftw!), I found a perfect way to get them back on.
Grab a pair of channel-locks (pliers with the adjustable second "arm"), size them so they fit over the movable clip on the one side and the ridge on the other, and squeeze gently. I suck at using channel-locks, always have, but I got the clips back on, first try on both of them, five seconds apiece
Also, to open the clips, all you need is a wide-bladed flat-head screwdriver. Stick the tip into the part that's clipped over the ridge, twist the driver sideways and bam, the clip is off. I guess you run the risk of bending them slightly, but that'd be all the more reason to replace 'em with *REAL* hose clamps, lol!
And if the clamps are different ones, then I guess I'm in for a headache next weekend...

So I think my pump is going out now at 41k miles, and I'm wonderring if the pump at the following link is what I need to get, and also if those connectors will work or if I need to get something else on top of that? Is there a better link that anyone knows about that I can get the pump at if this one isn't good? Thanks in advance:
