Car is a 74 2.0 D-Jet.
Put power to my original three port fuel pump today and it leaked like a sieve at the seam. All hose connections are good. I would be fine switching to an aftermarket two port pump. I remember hearing about a Bosch pump on this site at NAPA for $31, so I did a search on 914world to find the link. Just checked NAPA and the same pump is now $186. Found a "Hayg" on Ebay for $50. Ad says it will fit a 914. But it is ebay and a pump I never heard of. Has anyone found a reasonable aftermarket replacement lately? Thanks. Bob |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) How do I re-plumb the fuel hoses going from a three port pump to a two port pump? On the return line, there is a Y connection where the fuel went back into the pump and the other to fuel tank. Just discard the Y connection and run return line back to the tank. No return line to fuel pump since you only have two ports. The new fuel pump will have a smaller diameter than the three port pump. You are going to have to make some modifications on the bracket. I used an old Bosch coil bracket holder. You will also need a different fuel filter than the one needed for the three port. The in port is bigger than the out port. I got mine from NAPA. Part Number 3274. Attached thumbnail(s)
