Fuel tank pumps/lines/Ethanol
So, my dodgey in tank pump has me wondering if there might be better components for these than the OEM parts.... especially considering the prices.

Re: Fuel tank pumps/lines/Ethanol
SOme people upgrade either in tank or external to a 255 liter per hour pump for about the cost of an oem pump. For fuel lines, I'd simply replace with new fuel injection hose.

Re: Fuel tank pumps/lines/Ethanol
So, you mounted this in tank and just took out the old inline pump?

yes, much easier to troubleshoot also!jacko wrote:So, you mounted this in tank and just took out the old inline pump?
Mount this pump to the existing pump hanger (swap in/out lines), remove external main pump, leave main filter and re-plumb hoses as needed. It's not as hard as it sounds. Do a search first, guys have done it a couple different ways, but always with good results.
