I know for a fact a fuel injected VW Type 3 (Squareback, Fastback, & Notchback) fuel pump will work. If you happen to know where one is, of course. Good luck!

Oh, wait, I thought you were talking about a stock FI motor but I'm guessing you're talking about a 6-cylinder engine (the heart transplant one)?

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) Andy I wouldn't risk it. Maybe grab a crush washer & head out to NAPA & see if they can match it up w/ a brake line/caliper one. Good luck hermano.

try removing one from a banjo fitting on the oil system?
Audi, VW, Mercedes, all have the same size. Flip it over? I dont think that 565 can stand gas, it would probably leak. Rich |
