I know. Have bought another sea kayak so I've been out about 8 times since I've had it. :)
Good for my health kick.

Honda BF20 Fuel pump or Service kit.

I have a 2008 Honda 20hp that'll be getting serviced next week.
Can anyone tell me where I can get a service kit for the fuel pump? Or perhaps even a new pump?

Cheers,

Fraser.

Thanks, I'll put that into to equation.

Is it a big job to do? I can't find a kit or price for a pump. At a labour cost of 45 ph I don't know what'd be the cheaper option.
