    Default Petrol Pump No Longer Available

    Appears that the Fuel Pump has had it for the third time the last 10 years of ownership. Only problem is that these according to Rimmers are NLA. This sends a cold shiver up my spine. The part No is WRX000290. Anyone out there knows where to get these or if they have a different part number and being used by some other model? is it a VDO item?

    If it's just the actual pump insert you are looking for, try here: https://www.merlinmotorsport.co.uk/p...032-vdo-itp331

    As far as I know, it's the same unit in the 1.8t engine. (I'm also led to believe it's the same as/similar to a mini cooper R53)

    Hope that helps!

    Was the original a VDO?
