link hidden, please login to view has launched the new BKS1002 fuel pump kit. This new model is engineered specifically for high-pressure, in-tank applications and is the highest flowing fuel pump in the TI Automotive catalog, according to the company. The BKS1002 fuel pump kit will feature:
High-pressure, high-flow E5LM brushless screw pump 3’ long wire harness for tank mounting High-performance inlet filter Support of 1,000+ horsepower “The BKS1002 further expands our line of fuel pump kits with another high-pressure, high-performance technology, but adds additional flexibility for enthusiasts,” said Brian Altenberger, aftermarket business director, TI Automotive. “There has been a significant demand in the market for the option to purchase a standalone pump and the BKS1002 now provides that option.”
TI Automotive Aftermarket said its BKS1002 must be driven with a sensorless 6-step commutation method or other suitable methods such as Sinusoidal or Field Oriented Control (FOC). The BKS1002 pump, filter and wire harness are all components from the BKS1001, but without the controller. The BKS1001 will remain available, however customers who already utilize a controller may now opt to purchase a kit without one, offering additional build flexibility.

The automotive aftermarket’s premiere event, AAPEX 2024, is now just a matter of weeks away. As Carm Capriotto explains in the latest edition of AAPEX Insights, the event is not just an opportunity to explore new products, but a chance to significantly enhance your business.
In this installment, Capriotto details the benefits of attending AAPEX. He recalls one shop owner’s enthusiasm as he discovered new products and networked with suppliers. This kind of interaction—seeing, touching and asking questions about new tools—provides a level of insight that online research simply cannot match.
Capriotto discusses AAPEX with Matt Fanslow, manager at Riverside Automotive in Red Wing, MN, and host of the “Diagnosing the Aftermarket A to Z” podcast. They note a growing trend among shops that attend AAPEX: They return with renewed energy and knowledge that can directly boost their revenue. Any temporary disruption caused by closing a shop for a few days to attend AAPEX is outweighed by the increased efficiency and innovation that follows.
Fanslow compares the AAPEX experience to a trip to Disney World—expensive but worth the investment. Just as people plan and sacrifice to make a memorable trip happen, investing in AAPEX can significantly improve your shop’s operations and team capabilities. The exposure to new technologies and networking opportunities can invigorate your business and motivate your team.
The knowledge gained, the relationships built, and the new tools and techniques discovered at AAPEX can lead to substantial long-term benefits. This year’s show runs from November 5-7 in Las Vegas. You can register at

link hidden, please login to view, through Northwood University, is holding Session I of its Leadership 2.0 course. The first five-day session continues through August 15. Northwood calls the class in tactical leadership for the aftermarket “a tremendous learning experience, with excellent presenters and supporters.” Leadership 2.0 includes a blend of industry research and market analysis, discussion and debate on the challenges confronting the light vehicle and heavy-duty aftermarket. Also discussed are competitive strategies, interpersonal communication skills, contract negotiations, conflict resolution, organizational culture, cyber-security best practices, insight into supply chain solutions, and other industry topics and trends.
Jennifer Cothran, the director of content at The Pronto Network, provided her account of the first day of the session:
“I am beyond excited to see what this week has in store for us. We kicked off today’s event with meeting our colleagues and opened with an exciting and inspiring conversation with two of Northwood’s best – Dr. Thomas Litzinger who encouraged us to be open this week, and from James O’Dell and what we could look forward on having an engaged class – on our own or with his help.
They saved the best for last as we heard from Lisa Foshee from the Auto Care Association. Her unique take on leadership and relating them to the game of basketball – Show up and BE present, DO bold things, and DO what you say you’re going to DO – were some of the takeaways. I can’t say I’ve talked about basketball that much before and based on her stories I’m glad I’m not a fan of her team’s rival! Hearing from other colleagues also sharing their perspectives from making all interactions personal, to a good/bad “Dad” joke, a coloring book to a just simple “hi, how are you?” can be bold moves to show presence and create those important relations and moments.
Not all of us can show up for their family to build a kitchen before we left for Leadership 2.0 as one of our attendees did, but taking time away from family and work to attend this “life changing” event is definitely a bold adventure for all of us. I’m looking forward to learning other unique experiences from the lineup of amazing speakers and from my fellow colleagues in attendance.
Thank you to AWDA for this amazing opportunity as a scholarship recipient and to The Pronto Network and the team left at home to take care of business. And, lastly, to my family who I’ve left at home – Thank you for taking on additional responsibilities for me to take advantage of this opportunity as learning never stops!
Session II of Leadership 2.0 will be held March 11-16, 2025.
