  Wallace, & listers

  Just completed the Pierburg fuel pump change and it
was a breaze
 there's a white cover allready on the pump and the
mounting braket that connects the old pump to the
bottom of the tank fit's on that no problems.
 Like I saied all the stuff needed is in the box
no need for the noise damper the case nut in the box
goes at the top of the pump instead of the noise
damper thats the only difference.

 Fired the car up and wella no noise you can just hear
the pump sycling, i allso replaced the fuel pump relay
as well worth the piece of mind.
 Hope this helps.
Thanks
Ron
