Just replaced my fuel pump in my 07 xstar. I had the dealer replace the whole module in ‘13 I think... which was about 700 hours ago. Im amazed it lasted that long frankly. I had the corrugated white tube in mine already, but bought a spare off amazon for the job in case I couldn’t reuse mine. I didn’t go with the oeliker clamps, just the style that came with the goodies fuel tube (but i did double clamp it). Just wanted to say thanks to everyone who added to this thread, made it very straightforward

Fuel pump quick info
When I pull this thread up none of the pics and part numbers show up. Does anyone have the part numbers for a 2006 MCX 350? I had mine changed by the dealer back in 2010-11. It’s out again and I would like to pull the fuel pump myself and change this time. Thank for anyone that can shorten this read.2006, X-45, Acme 1285, X-Star ballast, Heater, Shower,

Worth noting lots of dealers are having supply problems on these. Three in my area didn’t have available but inboard garage did. Installed Saturday with no drama. Couple of pointers:
-It’s spring loaded so you need to compress to get bolts started.
-gasket (get a new one) it’s a little tricky to align. I used Allen wrenches in the open bolt holes to get the first few started and keep it from shifting. 49 in-lb to finish. I started hand tight like I was doing lug nuts.
-this tool worked like magic to get the line off first try. Second to smallest size. Lisle 39400 Angled Disconnect... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000W0UZHG...p_mob_ap_share
-I bought new bolts. Lots of folks don’t but since I was in for an $800 module so I splurged on $35 in bolts.
-my original pump was working but definitely on its way out. New pump really woke the MCX up. Also had a massive kink in the black hose as other have noted.
Good luck! Go slow and check for leaks frequently.

Couple of pics to add to the thread, including a shot of the factory-kinked hose, corrosion on pump module (this is with my 300 of its total 700 hours on ethanol-free gas) and the popular "yellow connector issue" that stranded me last week and prompted the module change. Note arced/burned connector second from right. New pump install replaced the entire harness coming from the relay at the ECM (p/n 501000), as I went from original Carter to new dual-pump Millennium setup.

I encountered the same problem getting the bolts started and figured out the tension/spring load on the canister. I also got the gasket in place and then started on one side and went back and forth finger tightening the bolts and then continued with the allen socket across back and forth.
Good idea on going back and checking for leaks.
Another note to anyone testing the voltage going to the fuel pump. It only shows voltage for just a second when you turn your ignition on. I was trying to check it by myself and kept getting no voltage at pump socket so have someone turn ignition on while you have your multimeter on terminals.2006, X-45, Acme 1285, X-Star ballast, Heater, Shower,

Thanks for all the great info everyone who has contributed to this thread, I have searched high and low but can't locate the requested info.

I determined that the Bosch 69238 pump is a substitute. I installed two Bosch 69238 using 8mm fuel hoses from Summit ABT-CFD402 5/16X8.0 hoses. The hose going from the T-fitting to the regulator is 6mm. After a lot of searching I could not find a replacement so I used the short piece of hose the comes with the fuel pump. This is special high pressure submersible hose so don't used regular fuel hose. I bought an assortment of Oetiker clamps and installed the smallest clamps that would fit. Using the 5/16 hose on the regulator to T I used the smallest Oetiker clamp that would fit and made it as tight as I could. Don't waste your time with the worm screw clamps. With everything installed the engine started right up with 56 psi at the fuel rail. I haven't tested it under load yet but will this weekend. Considering each of the two pump could supply the volume and pressure required I am confident they will work.
Tools-Lisle fuel line disconnect (blue)
3/16 Allen (wrench or socket)
Diagonal cutters
Flat head screwdriver
Fuel Pressure tester
Oetiker clamp pliers
Parts
Bosch 69238 Pumps two $74.00 total (I removed the plastic filter screen that comes with the pump)
ABT-CFD402 5/16X8.0 hoses Summit Racing (APE.COM sells the same hose but they don’t answer the phone or email so I went with Summit) approx. $15+shipping you need two.
Oetiker stainless clamp assortment stainless $15.00

2005 ProStar 209 pump quit. Vortec MCX 5.7L engine.
Took it out. Carter P61323. Took it to AutoZone. They checked and said Carter replaced that with a new number. Carter P74083. Cross referenced to a Delphi CFE0514
Bought the pump and installed it in the canister. Also ordered a new fuel filter from waterskis.com since I was not going to take out the canister and swap the pump without changing the filter too. Once I installed it correctly, took a few turns to get the engine to fire, but after that it's fully pressurized again and runs perfect.
The part about having to use a torque wrench does not seem to be required. I just finger tightened and then turned about 1/2 turn after that with allen wrench.
Links below for the pump and the filter I used. Total cost around $150. Buying the new canister from Mastercraft was about $800. So nice savings doing it myself and I was surprised it wasn't that difficult of a job. Key is making sure that the pump is seated in the bottom of the canister correctly and then the plastic bracket that holds it down you have to make sure your screws stay on top of it when you put them pack in. First try I missed and the screw went below the bracket. Hope this helps somebody. This thread helped me. Thanks.
