Oh right I see what you are getting at.

I have injection but I know what pump I want the reason the existing one blew was that it got some swarf in it from new tank but I have now fitted a pre pump filter.

The mount I have made under the back of the car is desgined to take a bosch in line pump like this one.

Yes the faulty one is out of a Nova GTE.

No one got one kicking around then.

Dam swarf that will teach me.

I'll have a look you might be very lucky. It'll be the weekend though before I get out.
I have once before removed/stripped the crimped ends of one of these pumps and removed the poo that was blocking it. You could try this as you won't break it any more than you already have.

I found one under a Sierra last week , a bit hard to get at in the scrapyard but a good source .Its just behind the axle on a mount with a damper unit as well .

It sits inside what can only be described as a huge rubber grommet, made out of neoprene type material with a saddle across it to secure.(just read this and hope it makes sense)
So an inner tube cut into 2inch wide strips and wrapped round a couple of times would probably do the job nicely.

I have found an ignition coil bracket is a good fit with a layer of bike inner tube between it and the pump , just need to sort out a layout to accomadate pump , inlet filter and swirl pot plus low pressure pump.I intend to fit a boot floor so am restricted to the lower half of the rear bulkhead or on the lower chassis rails infront of the axle.
