Thom 1 Posted October 30, 2015 Hi all, I had my fuel pump finally give up on me today. Have ordered a replacement from Euro Car Parts who tell me that because my car is 1996 registered, that the correct part is only the cylindrical pump itself, not with the housing/sender etc. Can anyone tell me if this is correct and that the pump can be replaced in the housing. I had thought that the entire unit needed to be changed. Also, I've made a start getting the old one out up to the stage of removing the pump unit from the tank. Am having a little trouble getting it out, is it as simple as twist anti-clockwise to remove? Cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thom 1 Posted November 1, 2015 When I went to collect the part, it turned out to be the full pump assembly, minus the sender (and is apparently a specific part number for cars registered after mid 1995). I just used the original VDO sender and pipes with renewed clips and all is good. Removal from the tanks is quarter turn anti-clockwise (on a bayonet type fitting). I siphoned most of the fuel out of the tank first which made the job much easier. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
