fuel pump died on me, had my mate sitting in the back banging it whilst i was driving!

instead of buying used might as well buy new, ecp want £230 for a pump! anywhere cheaper and are the lower priced alternatives decent?

Deffo no point buying a second hand one as it could just die on you 2 weeks down the line for all you'll know. And unfortunately, they aren't cheap :(

Is there any way a walbro would fit? They're much cheaper and seem to be widely used.
