Can anyone tell me if this pump will fit my 1600 carb coupe?

I am without car so cannot compare visually.

Thanks

Have a look at my recent thread that has a picture of the pump I fitted last month. The one on your eBay thread looks a bit tall to me and may foul the inlet manifold.

Latest - its not the pump, its crud in the tank, which has been awakened by all this driving it about for MOTs nonsense.

I assume best option is to strip and line the tank?

Either that or buy shares in a fuel filter manufacturer...  Grin

I've recently had to get my Spider tank re-lined. When I drained it the amount of crud and corruption that came out was quite disturbing...

Is lining the tank a DIY thing( looks quite simple on the POR 15 video on YouTube) or are there any specialists who will take the pain ( and mess) out of the process?

There are specialist who will take the pain out of the process, but they replace it with a pain in the wallet...   Grin

I used Hartlepool Radiators and their Re-nu process. Basically they open the tank up, blast it inside and out, weld it back up again and then bake their own proprietary coating onto it. They offer a lifetime guarantee, but it will set you back the far side of £300 depending on condition. I'm sure there are other people out there doing different processes and possibly cheaper, but this seemed a 'do once and forget about it' deal, which appealed.
