Nothing wrong with Summit equipment, but I'd why not go OEM (Denso)? If yours are original (amazing if so), you got 20 yrs out of those...
Amazon Amazon
...I put 2 of these in 7 yrs ago and are quiet. I know it says 2 wks, but you have a part #. Delphi makes some decent electrical parts as well....Autozone has those in stock usually.

The one brand I will never use again is Airtex. Had to put 2 of them (within a month) in my work truck yrs ago. Sure they covered it, but not the labor to redo it.

Denso shows it discontinued https://www.densoproducts.com/denso-...d-strainer-set

I did order a pair of Delphi
Amazon Amazon
Rockauto list the Delphi as there "premium" option.
I'm just second guessing my choice. I would never use the Airtex either.

uro stamps over them and sells it for 2x the price

So I reached out to Denso, and they discontinued the pump and offer no replacement. I end up going with the ERO from rockauto. Being a direct fit, same connector and 2 year unlimited mileage warranty. Not that that really matters but at least it's 2 year over the other 1 year.. Makes it sound better. Idk..

Take the most you can get for the best price. Quiet is also important ..or you'll hear that constant impeller hum which will resonate in a solid car like this.

That doesn't look like a bad one k-man. Seems to cover quite a range of installs and not priced badly either.

Is there any difference? 98 -03 should be the same correct?

Jag shows that as fitting 98-99 as well
https://www.jaguarparts.com/oem-part...embly-jlm20529
Were the C2N3866 fits 98-2003. https://www.jagbits.com/product/C2N3866-OE.html
Is it just the different connector?

JLM20529 = early XK8, C2N = X308.

the URO one is fine, it’s quiet and is plug and play


https://www.ebay.com/itm/373494376204

this is the cheapest plug and play

I put the Delphi pumps in my 02 xjr a little under a year ago. I did have to fight to get the pump into holder. But doable.

I also used Delphi from Autozone.. Minor mods to the rubber cushioning. Plugs fit. The filters/socks were replaced with decent quality aftermarket items from Rock Auto. I do not care for the design of original Jaguar filters (and they are stupid expensive).

Yikes, I recently had my fuel pump and pressure regulator replaced because it wasn't starting correctly. I don't work on my own cars as I am sure you can tell. But did those links include the regulator as well? Are they hard to change out? Thanks.

I just put 2 of these in my 03’ SV8.

Denso 951-0008
Its currently $72 on Amazon.

It comes with a wire splice adapter so it’s not a true plug n play. There’s no sock with this pump either but, if you want high quality components, you gotta improvise. I used a Delphi sock.

Delphi DEL38-K4014 is a winner.
