we replaced the main pump wih one from an audi 5000. the rabbit pump looked like a fit also. Need to change the outlet(swap off old pump.) the primer pump is cheap- $30. new. get a new filter screen for it too. You can do it yourself if you don't smoke a cig during. just keep everything lined up and dont forget the return line from the injection goes into the can too. ul Aspinall <Paulnopsamaspinall.freeserve.co.uk> wrote in message news:7a0s40$v9q$1nopsam4.svr.pol.co.uk... >Its not worth messing with.
