How to determine which Type I have

[Bustech17]

I need a fuel pump for my Laser 560, but there are two types to pick from. How do I determine which one I have? The only depiction I can come up with is in the serial number. The serial is 04255 H0FF560B. Am I to assume I have a type "B" since the end of the serial is 560B?

Thanks,
Des

Yes, Bustech, you are correct. The Lot number you gave shows you have a type B heater , so you should get a type B fuel pump.

Too be honest, I didn't know there was a different type L560. There does appear to be a Type B main circuit board as well. I do not know what differences there are in the different Types.

Be aware that there is a different fuel line for Type B pumps as well. The type B model uses a fuel line the is the same as the Laser 56 (20478041). The type A model line is much smaller in diameter.

Good to know the fuel line differs between Type A and B. Do you know of any other differences besides the line and circuit board?

Looking at the parts list, those are the only differences I see between the A and B types.

You can get a parts list in the back of the Owners manual or the Service Manual.

The Laser 560 had a very short run. It was a solid unit as was the Laser 56. I can see why Toyotomi discontinued the line. They were moving towards a complete line of Positive Pressure units. The complication with that idea is the Laser 730 series unit.

I will stop here, as this idea needs it's own thread.
