inline fuel pump

[89GP_SE]

Well the fuel pump in my car is dead, I was wondering if it would be possible to install an inline fuel pump somewhere on the fuel rail instead of pulling out the one in the tank?

no matter what you will have to pull the tank, so might as well replace the one in there and keep things simple.

but what if i get those ones that can be mounted on the frame or something, then would I have too.

you will have to remove the one from the tank and add a tube in its place. The stock pump in place not running will cause such a huge ass restriction, you wouldnt have enough fuel to run the car and the inline pump would quickly burn up..,

 

Dropping the tank shoudl only take about 20 minutes. All in all, changine the pump is easily done in about an hour

Some rust worse than others. Not simplying implying that Canada cars will rust worse, however, his car may be very rusty. All depends on how well it was taken care of.
