Dead Fuel Pump

Hi All,

I took the 325 on its first track day yesterday - it was a bit wet and icy in the morning so i spent a lot of time in the grass (rubbish tyres)

However it all dried out by the lunch break and was A LOT faster in the afternoon. Until the fuel pump died that is!

So I'm now consideirng the options Euro Car Parts have two a Bosch and a PWM - The PWM is half the price, anybody have any experiences with this unit?

Its a cheap track day car so I would rather not spend to much if this unit is going to be good enough.

scrap yard? £10 - £15 will almost certainly buy a complete in tank unit, as opposed to just the pump... Or is it a in line pump?

£5 a time at my favourite scrappy. Remember that you have to unscrew and remove the level sender, before the pump will lift out of the tank.
