Fuel filter fitting

Recommended Posts

I have just bought a new fuel pump for my VR6 and it looks different to my original one. There is nowhere to attach the sender unit. Anyone had this problem before.

What part number have you got? It may be the type where you have to strip down the orginal to fit the pump.

They might have given you a 3 bar Golf one....

 

If not, take the pump out of the new unit you bought and put it in your old housing.....takes about 5 minutes....

All sorted now.

 

They have changed the design of the fuel pumps for the VR6. My original one had a bracket to attach the fuel sender but the new one didnt. So now I have to shell out another £90 for it.

 

But as a temporary measure I have cable tied the old unit to the new pump and it all works fine. Surprised no one else had come across this problem.
