i got eletric fuel pump fer sale...
new boxed...
 
right the colors of the wires going to the white multi plug are

white/red
Yellow/blue
Black/Orange
White Ign On
white/purple Fuel pump
White/Blue 5 Anmp fuse fuel pump

the above is what ive been given on the back of a fah packet but i want to be sure before i start blowing things up. also im still not sure what the fuel pump looks like so cant start looking for one
 
I'm not sure what the EFi injectors run at, but the 4.0 Thor system has 50psi behind the injectors, so I'd check that you are going to have enough pressure to run them

What type of Landy? Series, Defender, Disco?

EFI Rangies and Discos have an in-tank pump, depending on year, some have a separate fuel gauge sender and some have the combined sender and pump. Unfortunately, these do not, as far as I know fit a defender or series tank. So I guess you'll need an external pump. you might also need to think about the return fuel line and what pressure regulator you are running. I'll check later what the fuel pressure should be on a 3.9 (assuming it is in the manual) and that might at least give you a starting point.

Your other option may be to try and find a tank and pump from a 50th anniversary V8 Defender, or ask at a local stealer or good independent. Rimmer Bros may list the correct parts but hold your breath on the price.
 
its a manual the engine is from a RRC and the tank thats in my 90 has a seperate sender unit so im guessing a need a uot bord pump??
 
has anyone put a 3.5 Eif into there landy????? if you have then can you tell me how you wireed it in???? and what you did about the fuel pump
 
Right been at it all day and ive got it to turn over so thats a start. now i just need to wire the ECU in and sort the Dissy, Coil & Alt and one help me lol
