u need one with 2 pipes i believe, i think all injection novas have it or if u got a carb one u can braize on a return to the tank.

because that sel panels as advertised on here say tat the gte/gsi fuel tank has an internal fuel pump i was sure it didn't but thought they must know what they are talking about. the fuel pump is mounted on the underside of the car i said. no its not sir its in the tank.

5766 Fuel Tank - Diesel Models - 3 Door/Van
8888 Fuel Tank GTE/GSi With Internal Pump - 2 Inch Hole
2844 Fuel Tank - Petrol Injection - 4/5 Door
6598 Fuel Tank - Petrol Injection Models - 3 Door SPFi/
4774 Fuel Tank - Petrol Models - 1.2/1.4 4/5 Door
4773 Fuel Tank - Petrol Non-Injection Models 4 Pipes

which of the above is it i get the feeling it is none of them

last i heard megavaux was selling new gm tanks for cheap due small dints on them. not enough to damage the tank but too much for vauxhall to sell them
