Fuel pump, (Lazy question)

[AshG]

i wouldn't turn the ignition on he's took the engine out so it will piss fuel 30foot across the garden

it will be in the tank dave. the easy option is to drop the tank out of the car then take it in the warm to play.

What year sierra is it.

Pre 90 Spec has external pump mounted on the spare wheel well.
Post 90 has intank pump

Unless it's a cosworth and they all had external pumps.

Thank's for the replies guy's.
Glad I didn't spend all morning underneath it looking

Assuming that it's in the tank then ( It's a Jan 1990, TT)
I don't fancy the idea of refitting in the new tank.
Therefore I will need an external one.
Is this the type of thing I need?

Again any advice appreciated

Certainly looks like just the thing you need

The listing does state that it is suitable for injected engines.

I dare say that you'll get some sound advice from someone a bit more familiar with fuel injected engines

Would be a right git, crawling about & freezing your nuts off just to find it's in the tank

If it's feeding a fuel injected engine then it will most likly need about 3bar. That pump only goes to about 9psi so it would not work.

Sierra tanks can be a right pain top get out.

When I first see 3bar I thought WT
But having looked on the tinternet It looks like you are right
Not that I ever doubted it

So still looking for a propa job

I have one, it was intended for our MK1 golf but I changed tack on the fuel delivery for that.
