914World.com _ 914World Garage _ 75-76 Fuel pump Holder

Posted by: nihil44 Feb 7 2013, 05:07 AM

The factory manual has instructions for removing the fuel filter for 75-76

1. remove mats and spare wheel from luggage compartment

2. remove cover with console and fuel pump

3. Pull fuel filter forward off of holder

What is the "holder" mentioned in 3. ?

I have looked in the usual places (PET, Haynes, etc) but can't find an illustration of the "holder"

I am converting my 74 to front fuel pump using the factory 75-76 mount (obtained from forum member - thanks) but don't want the square (cube shaped) fuel filter wandering around unrestrained under the fuel tank.

Does anybody have a photo or illustration?

Many thanks

David

I don't think there is one. If there is I haven't seen it yet. And I've been in there several times. popcorn[1].gif

There is a bracket for the fuel filter. It looks like the early models that are mounted under the engine shelf.

I cut out the filter holder from the rear of the car and rewelded it in the front as shown.

You don't say whether you're running a stock 4 with FI, or something else. That's a 911 pump, and it's not likely to produce the correct fuel pressure.
