AUF214 is the original pump. The solid state electronics will fix the points issues. |

I agree. They are noisy but mounted on a Mini centre exhaust mount you can't hear it with motor running. They seem to run forever, but a spare is inexpensive if you feel the need. Edit If it's a Cooper or GT I'd keep it original, on anything else I would fit something more reliable. Like a Facet. |

If you wanted to fit an electric one then at least with the SU pump you could buy the brackets to fit it in the Standard location of the earlier cars? |

The only reason why I'm using a mechanical pump on the other is that I've been able to acquire and install a new diaphragm. Each to his own, eh? |

I think from his post history and the original post its a 1970 CS (Cooper S). I would stick with the original style electric S.U pump if it is an S, if not whatever is easily accessible as nothing parts wise these days lasts forever! |

Also will pump at the correct pressure and volume , having been a victim of an alternative pump believe me when I put the AUF214EN on it worked and I have been able to enjoy my car worry free and not wondering when it was going to stop . |
