RSV fuel pump vs. First Gen fuel pump

[Prairiehammer]

Pardon me if I am incorrect, but it seems that the Second Gen fuel pumps are more prone to fail than the First Gen fuel pumps.

What is different from one Generation fuel pump to the other?

Can a First Gen pump be used on a Second Gen?

Thanks, Gary for the thread about the First Gen fuel pump on a Second Gen.

 

But what is the difference between the G1 and G2 pumps (besides the mounting) that has manifested a higher failure rate in the G2? Is the G2 version constructed on the same principle (electromagnetic reciprocating diaphragm)?

 

Just curious.
