Fuel pump

[Baynesey]

Hi all

Need some help think my fuel pumps on the way out, has anyone changed one?

How hard is it??

And could I do with very little experience??

Could someone do me astep by step guide if possible??


Cheers in advance dan

Easy to do:

-Lift up the rear seats
-Disconnect the two pipes you can see going in to the fuel pump (remember which one goes on which side!)
- Unplug the connector on top of the fuel pump
- Unscrew the cap (sometimes this is stuck on very tight, so get a screwdriver, put it on one of the ridges on the cap and tap it with a hammer)
- Lift up the fuel pump, get a bucket or something to chuck the pump straight into because the petrol inside the pump will go everywhere
- Put the new pump in, tighten it up, connect the plug, put the 2 pipes back in.

Easy for anyone to do! When I changed mine I didn't have a clue what to do but just by looking at it you'll realise how simple it is.

If it's definitely just a fuel pump that needs replacing then it's an easy fix!

Second hand pump from a scrap yard is about £20, local motor factors told me £175 for a brand new one.
