HELP! fuel pump

[CMF_smallrat]

My car doesn't start due to fuel pump failure. where can I get a fuel pump? I am in Victoria. Is it possible to fit it myself?

 

[CMF_fred]

try your local wreakers.... they might be able to do a ring a round for you if they don't have one. let me know if that doesn't work and I'll have a look here.

I've got a gti-r pump I wanna install (I'll have a look at it this weekend) and if all goes well you can have the standard one. (I'm a bit stuck for time thou, so mightn't get to it)

Hey fred!i removed my back seats and there was a plate underneath the seats.I remove the plate and i can see theres wires and 2 hoses attach.Is that the fuel pump?Its white and round.

 

[CMF_fred]

yep, its located there, just screw off the lid
i cant remember, but you might have to remove the plug and lines

Thank you guys!thank you so much for all your help.I've got the aftermarket fuel pump.Gona pick it up later.Its about $90.That's cheap compared to nissan fuel pump which they quoted $884.that's ridiculous price.My god!But hope this aftermarket pump would fit in the micra.Fingers cross.Will update.Thanks y'all.

Hi fred!just got the fuel pump!I then took the fuel pump to my car.And guess what guys.I took out the plate and then disconnected the hoses and the wire.Then i pulled the sensor out and i got stuck.Cause the fuel pump is inside and covered with fuel.So did not want to go any further.As i rip abit of the top hose.And now decided to call the lube mobile mechanics.Booked it in for 2morrow at 8am.Will try to take photos and post it up when he is doing it.Hope he dosen't mind.they quoted around $139.00.

Cheers!

I dont know why people use the standard micra pumps. Skyline pumps are cheaper & basicly fit straight in. They are also good if you plan on making more power later.
