Fuel pump fitting....

[micka]

How do you fit a fuel pump in to a micra, i know it is under the seat in the tank at the back, anyone have a quick step guide on how this is done as mine is not working anymore.

Much appreciated.... Micka (Y)

3 x 10mm,s in the cover micka, then remove the pipes and wires, then screw the big collar off, then lift it out the tank

When you are putting it back together put a light film of washing up liquid on the big rubber seal at the top of the tank. Fit it to the plastic part you are fitting rather than balance it on the top of the tank.
Push down on it when you turn the plastic rim.

Dry up any spilled petrol inside the car as it melts the sound insulation and you get big black streaks on the seatbelts!

And make sure you have plenty ventilation!
