5k pierburg fuel pump instalation

[Ron Wainwright]

  Wallace,

  As far as I remember there were no issues with
wiring connectors,
the pump I ordered was part # 98172. This is for a 87
non turbo 5ksq 2.3 NF engine not sure if it's the same
as the turbo cars (different pressure maybe),
 other listers may now.
 But like I said it was no puzzle very straight
forward.
 I'm looking at the instructions that came in the box
an it goes like this,
- empty the tank as low as you fell comfortable with
- Disconnect ground strap
- take cover off fuel sender
- disconnect the hoses from the top of the unit
- release the locking ring
- disconnect the hoses from the underside of the
sending unit and remove being carefull of the sender
arm
- remove fuel pump by uncliping the 3 tabs that hold
the housing at the bottom of the tank.
- remove the noise damper & fuel line from pump
- there's a hose clamp that holds the housing to the
pump loosen that and remove the housing downwards &
the clamp upwards.
 And then there's an cap nut that replaces the noise
damper, allso comes with zip ties to tie the wire to
the fuel line, & washers for the connections. To be
honest with you it's plug and play as far as I
remember. But you should get instructions in the box
as well.
 Hope this is additional help.
Thanks
Ron
