Zusammenfassung:A pump assembly for use in delivering fuel to a common rail of an internal combustion engine. The pump assembly includes a pumping plunger (28), a drive member (34) that is co-operable with the pumping plunger (28) and driven, in use, by an associated cam arrangement (12) to impart drive to the plunger (28), and thus to cause pressurisation of fuel within a pump chamber (30), and a pump head (22) provided with a plunger bore (26) within which the plunger (28) reciprocates as it is driven. A main pump housing (10) is provided with an opening (18a, 18b, 18c) and an insert member (32) is mounted within a first end of the opening. A second end of the opening receives the pump head (22). The insert member (32) is separate and distinct from both the main pump housing (10) and the pump head (22) and defines a guide path for the drive member (34) as it is driven by the cam arrangement (12), in use.
