I was originally running an external fuel pump on my nova 1.4 sr, but running a c20let engine.
Problem was my fuel tank sprung a leak so changed the pump but I couldnt get the same tank as before. My new tank has a swirl pot in it but it also has the slot for an internal pump so looks like I am going to have to run an internal pump now.

Question is which car do I get the pump from? Is any astra/cavalier mpi (eg ecotec engined etc) ok? Are the mounts/internals of these pumps exactlty the same as the nova? Wish my nova had the cutout under the rear seats for fitting pumps, guess mine was an spi model originally, 1.4 SR?


Thanks in advance!

A mk3 astra. (make sure its a mpi model)
Just unbolt the pump housing and bolt it into your nova tank.

will a cavalier one be ok? Just bought one with a walbro 255 pump in it from a cavalier

no sorry not for a LET you need to upgrade pumps I'm afraid if you want to keep it alive!

edit the walbro 255 is ideal
