I have had 21000miles of trouble free-ish motoring and like it happened. Went out to the middle of wales pulled up came back a few hours later and the car would start!!!!!!! I was spitting chips!!!!
We check my baby and all was good but no fuel!! Oh dear i said. So i phone the breakdown people they come out "yeah mate your fuel pumps gone" As if things can't get any worse the recovery truck could pick me up because they need a specail flat bad as my car being low. So they took me back to the depo and with 30 mins I was on the back of the recovery and on my back back home.
Once at home 2330hrs work started to get the twin pipes rolling again. Out came the rear seats and center console shortly followed by the pump. Getting my spare i noticed the part numbers were different but I though it will work and it did. The pump from my old 90 worked in my 93 even though the 93 has the bigger tank. But be warned. It took 2 weeks for my petrol gauge to adjust to the new pump.
We then refitted the seats and all and proceed back to wales for a spot of hill walking.
