Fuel Pump Installation?

[GuestyR33]

hey everyone

has anyone on here installed a bosch 040 internal fuel pump into an r33 gtst.

I tried doing mine the other day but have had a couple dramas.

Was wondering if someone could help.

Is there anyone around ferntree gully (eastern suburbs)

willing to come give us a hand. If ya wanna get paid for fitting

thats cool, just let me know how much ya willing to do it for.

Ive taken the old pump out, and mounted the new one to the cradle, but when i

went to put it back into the tank, i found that the long plastic cylinder which i assume

reads the fuel levels in the tank won't fit back in. It seems since the new pump is

physically larger it causes grief re-mounting the fuel sensor thingy lol.

Hope someone can help.

cheers.

I just did one yesterday......You shouldn't have to remove the plastic cylinder thing.

The pump will fit back in but it is pain, you just need to get it in the right angle.
