When I got this car and after trailering it home, the fuel pump was dangling under the car, held on by the fuel lines. The whole car was kind of a bucket but now it's getting restored and I'm not sure how the fuel pump is mounted. It's a '74 2.0 liter. The photos I see, show a pump on the firewall just to the right of the main wiring harness. But, I have no stud or mounting points there. Does it go on the bracket (photo)? Photos of correct location? Thanks for any input.

OK, looks like my car has had some alterations in the past. I like the location of JawaPorsche's which may be the easiest way to solve this, since I will have to fab something. I'll use rubber insulators which I use from a $1.00 rubber floor mat from Dollar Tree. I cut strips off of it and works great. Not to concerned with originality but the car will probably be 95% original. Just personal touches that will make it more fun for me. Not sure I want to replace the plastic lines since I already installed the fuel tank, without scratching any of the new paint. Don't think I can do that twice.
Thanks for all the great info and photos. Really helps me out. |
