I recently had a fuel pump failure with my WEBASTO AIrtop heater on a boat moored on the non tidal RIver Thames. The part was eight months old (51 hours of service) and cost £305 to replace by a main Agent.
Webasto warranty said the part was not covered because “the diesel fuel smelt like varnish and modern diesel has a shelf life of 6 months before it degrades and causes pump failure”. I wonder if other boat owners are also experiencing this problem?
