fuel lift pump swap

I have bought a 98 disco 300 as my 94 was rotten and tatty. Its a manual and it seems a bit sluggish even when compared to my old auto disco.I want to swap my delphi lift pump of the old disco on to the new so have ordered a new gasket . Will I need new olives for the pipes or will the old ones do ?

Best to get new as awkward to remove old ones and might not seal properly-a lot of pumps come complete with olives.
Have you checked the screen is not blocked on existing Delphi?

Doh -mis read post.Get some new olives mate

Thanks Biolandy , glad you are still here. Thought you would have been banned by now . Do you know what size they are ? Would local plumbers merchant be best bet?

olives are nrc9771 or 8mm

Yep we have seen some people come and go over the years .This is still the best and only forum I bother with. I have another disco now so will be needing your help soon I'm sure but hopefully not too soon.
p.s thanks james for the olive part no.
