Yep I was fairly unimpressed with the welding and fitment when I bought it a couple of years ago and said as much when I first started commenting on the forum.

Walbro 460 arrived. Now to somehow get it in there... Did I read somewhere I'll need some submersible fuel hose? a255edddcf2d92c3f0aa84315d9bf75b.jpg

Fark knows.

 

It's just one more thing to add to the neverending list of car maintenance.

 

Speaking of which, those ball joints that I fitted a while ago with the blue dust covers have split already. It'll be genuine next time I think.

Got the pump out last night. Does the Walbro just sit in there with the rubber friction? The new filter does not have a clip up dohicky like the old one.
Now I gotta try find a replacement fuel hose before the shops shut. 8ab01ac426fb4fa0b98adf65cdb97fb6.jpg

I chopped the cradle where the bottom of the pump is so it would shut properly without the pump jamming into the base. I adjusted the piece of hose to get the pump height right. I also left the return hose alone so I didn't have to replace it.

 

That's in a sedan though and that's the way I wanted to do it. I don't know if the ute is the same.

Well this is the best hose I could find in town, literally checked everywhere. Fuel rated with the same pvc coating inside & out. Might have to order the proper stuff & come back to replace it another day.
& I'm sorta hoping that black is negative & grey is positive with the wiring ?9010a54fe3bb590933c9ed6cebdd762d.jpg

Yea it was $3.25 with 2 hose clamps. [emoji28]
I normally have everything prepared before I do a mod but with the forums down exactly when I was organising its all gone to sh*t lol

Got a link on where I can buy it?



Also got a quote back today which I thought was a bit steep. How much Labor is involved installing oil pump gears, valve springs, Cams, & head studs?
