Victims of poor quality Premium gasoline is increasing. Karimun Club Indonesia reported a number of cars owned by its members having problems on the fuel pump.

On August 25, 2010 seven members of the Karimun Club Indonesia car breaking down. The figure adds to the victims of the poor quality of Premium gasoline to a total of an 50-car.

KCI has taken a variety of ways, ranging from draining the fuel tank to form an emergency team. The team is equipped emergency kit in the form of portable tank / jerry cans of gasoline plus fuel pump. If there is a car breaking down the portable tank is installed and the 'cut' system of the original fuel pump so the car can run again up to the nearest garage KCI partners.

But the impact of quality problems Premium gasoline is terrible. There are several members of KCI which had broken fuel pump more than once, and some even have to make replacements for faulty fuel pump 4 times in 2 months!

This makes KCI think, whatever the content is not supposed to exist in the gasoline is very dangerous for the fuel pump manifold Karimun submersible electric fuel pump. KCI observed a broken fuel pump was only one month. Once disassembled, showing the wear of the commutator components, such as units that have been used for many years.

Finally, KCI led some members such as Ade Heru and Obelix, to experiment with modifying the system by applying the fuel pump manifold pump mechanical fuel pump, known as membrane systems for gas station Karimun classic car / box.

As is known, classical Karimun use the same engine type F10A Suzuki Carry 1000 and Katana / Jimny, which it still uses a membrane type fuel pump.

Thus, applying the fuel pump membrane KCI's Katana / Jimny (Figure 1) and make modifications to the fuel pump / filter assembly kit (Figure 2) that is in the tank car to bypass the in-tank fuel pump / filter because if not it will be inhibits the membrane pump suction fuel in the engine room.

The result is very good. Membrane fuel pump failed to provide an adequate supply of fuel to the engine carburetor F10A. KCI to test by running the engine to 7000 rpm without any problems. Several members of the KCI instead menggeber car up to speed 145 kph without symptoms 'mbrebet' at all.
