Right. This will be a piece of p155.

With an afternoon of rain my confidence was boosted enough to give this a try. I figured that with the damp air my tank could never explode (yes, i am that naive).

I am going to pick up the Walbro tomorrow so i thought i would have a look to see what i am going to be replacing (incase the Walbro is completely different). 2 nuts holding some metal tubes in (supply and return?) and 6 screws. Then I had to get those metal tubes so they didnt interfere with the removal of the centre bit.

The centre bit was tricky to remove and i got alot of fuel on me trying, but it finally came out. I made my measurements and put it all back together again.

Bridged the fuel pump relay so I could pre-start the pump (punch the tank) before trying to crank the engine and its all working (albeit still with the old pump). All up it only took 1hr

SO now comes my questions. Some research seems to indicate that Walbro will be quite a noisy pump. Is that true? I also read that the 255LPH pump will be too much for a stock FPR???

Anyone have knowlege about this?
