Hi,

I'm out of dependable used Bosch units and it doesn't appear that they make them anymore. I found a NOS for $135.

Other options on EBay are used Bosch for around $50. or new FACET branded, from $40- $80.

Then I came across this and ordered one.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Delphi-TPS-SS10547-For-Volvo-1987-1995/172531979250?fits=Model%3A240%7CMake%3AVolvo&epid=83288173&hash=item282bb513f2:g:s2MAAOSwhLNgT8Sz

I hope it's compatible with my $9.88 lift pump and $11 FPR.(still working)

Ya pays yer money, and ya takes yer chances.

Peter

    Peter, I bet that's a genuine Bosch TPS, if you get what's in the picture. Part number is correct and molded into the housing.

      Hi Art,

      I waited to respond until the parcel arrived. I noticed the Bosch part # in the photo but without the Bosch logo and "Made in Germany" I thought something was fishy.

      I know you're astute but now I'm wondering if you're psychic as well.

      I'm glad I ordered 2 of them as it seems they're the real deal. I noticed that someone bought the third remaining unit shortly after I posted so this may be old news to you. I hope so.

        You were more observant than I was to see the logo was missing. Now, I'm guessing the photos were Delphi's, edited just enough to please some lawyer. You're clairvoyant to suggest that last part might be heading my way. USPS promised it for today, but alas, even they admit their promises aren't.
