For the alternator pushrod people keep saying 100mm. Cip1 and Aircooled.new sells a 4 inch for the alternator fuelpump. Well, 4 inches amount to 102 mm and the fuelpump says "use 99.5mm" fuel pump rod.

Am I missing something? The pump says 99.5, the stores sell 102 mm (inches) and everybody else says use 100 mm.

I feel dumb, please help!

I meant alternator model fuel pump rod, not "alternator pushrod" Embarassed

Seriously doubt an alternator has a pushrod, if it does its probably next to the muffler valve... Laughing
