I've been working hard on my newly-acquired 73 2.0. Thanks to everyone on this site for all the inspiration and motivation! Currently have engine out, engine compartment stripped, interior stripped, gas tank out. Since the car has been sitting for 30+ years, i decided I would replace all the fuel lines. I plan to buy a complete stainless fuel line kit from Tangerine. In the state I'm at currently, it would be an ideal time to re-locate the fuel pump. I plan to keep the D-jet injection. Should I move the fuel pump to under the tank? Are there any down sides to this? What pump should I get?
Thanks in advance, Aaron |

My 73 vapor locked liked crazy. Stock location. Autocross, freeway, summer temps. Moving it fixed it.
I agree with line replacement. A must do if the engine is out. |
