I recently picked up a 73 1.7 that had been stored inside for 20 years. The body is great as expected sitting inside, but the fuel pump does not work among other things and looking for a replacement I see that they are no longer made. Great! Can I retrofit a later model pump to fit my car? I thought the injection systems were pretty much the same all the way through the years, but the newer pumps look vastly different from my hunk of metal pump, mine having 3 hose connections and the newer ones only the typical two. Thanks in advance.

When you get the late style pump (and I would), you're gonna need some 12mm fuel hose and a late type fuel filter. Once the stuff in hand, ask for instructions and we'll help you. Wouldn't hurt to buy the special hose from the fuel line to the filter (914 356 525 00), and about 15 ft of new 7mm FI hose and the required correct hose clamps.
