alright, whats the difference between a 1.2isingle point injection petrol tank and a gsi one if there is any,
The fuel pump is the only difference IIRC :wink:
1.2 tank has an in tank pump, the Gsi one has an external pump at the back of the car.

if your gonna use external pump then replace the internal pump with a piece of solid pipe that replaces the pump in the holder and refit the basket filter to the pipe in its usual place

GTE has a totally different tank
either get an internal pump from a mk3 astra / later spec cav/cally / corsa mpi and fit that to your nova tank
or fit a complete GTE tank and use cally external pump
or do what i said above
