that's very nice info to have! will leave a few bucks for some pints.

thanks for the replies. with the facet red top, do you have to use a fuel pressure regulator, or is it just a nearly straight swap?

Greetings - I recently gave up my IIa 88 (right after a frame swap!) and I'm acquiring a SIII 109 with the 2.6 as a replacement. Having zero experience with the 2.6, I'm getting discouraged by what I read. However, I'm committed (or will be, I suppose) so there it lays. The vehicle I'm acquiring is in need of a new fuel pump (per curr/prev owner, who is an acquaintance through the local LR club, so I tend to accept that), however, I'm not all that interested in paying 400+ USD for a fuel pump, when I suspect that there's an alternative that can be used. It seems that some electric inline pump should work fine, but what's the experience here with doing this? any recommended part numbers or pressure/flow to look for? Thanks all 2000 DII (daily driver) IIa 88 (departed) III 109 (incoming)
