Fuel Pumps ???

Post by wudu »

My 1971 2.2t Targa has been behaving erratically recently. It seems to run out of fuel after running for 5 - 10 minutes. Obviously there is plenty of fuel in the tank and after a few mins it starts and repeats the whole thing.

It has been on a rolling road and I have been informed that its a dodgy pump. So, has anybody else had this and where is the best place to source a pump from at a reasonable price?

Presuming its just the one pump up front ?!

Any help is muchos appeciated...

thanks. After some silly priced pump quotes I think I will try cleaning the lines and tank first. What's best to clean out the tank and lines ?
