I have a split in the fuel tank of my 1993 sri (MPI, external pump) so I’m looking for a replacement.

I think I’ve found one, but I’m pretty sure it’s from a 1993 SPI Nova! I’ve been searching and I’ve found some information saying the MPI pump needs modding to go into an SPI tank….but my pump is external?? Can I just blank off the hole for the pump somehow??

Has anyone got any experience with this? Also, are the tanks otherwise identical?

I don’t want to splash out on a new tank and this one’s only £30 and local to me. If I got it, would it be fairly straight forward to get my MPI pump in there and get it fitted? Cheers :thumb:

get a corsa/astra internal pump and stick it in the nova spi tank! it'll need the top pipe shortening slightly to make sure it sits at the correct depth but it will work fine.
