Are 2litre t25 A/C Fuel pumps transferable to a 1.7 bay eng?

Apoloigies if this isn't T25 specific - but I thought some of you more knowlegable bods out there would still be able to help.

Had a mate call up last night saying he's finding it a nightmare to try and source a repalcement mechanical fuel pump for his 1.7 litre bay.

I've now got a spare for my 2 litre tT25 and was just wondring if he could use this on his bay lump - they're both essentially Type 4 engines give or take the odd oil filler position!

JK and GSF or CoolAir all don't seem to stock mechanical fuelpumps anymore for 1.7-2.0.

thanks,
Rich

Try Vee W Parts department which is down by the dog pound. They're on 0117 941 8641.

I've always found them loads more helpful than Euro or GSF.

Yep same as just bolt it up check pump rod length (worn ) and replace it if its out of spec !

I think you can completely by pass mechanical pump and install electronic instead. I think there is an upgrade kit for bays available.
