OK so coming home from the chip shop (could it have picked a worse time?)
and the disco starts losing power bunny hoping etc first thing that crossed my mind was fuel pump but this any way i mange to get it the 1/2 a mile home which took about 20mins (now have cold chips lol....) also had some puffs of blue smoke but I'm guessing the pump timing was totally out causing that
i open the bonnet to find a loud metallic tapping noise coming from the pump safe to say its had it i reckon
so I've just got a fuel pump off the land of ebay main thing i want to know is the flywheel locking pin the same on the 300tdi and a 19j?
please answer me yes or no as if not i can order 1 2day so i can get her sorted by the weekend.
also anything else that i should know or be aware of before replacing the pump like what size bolts lock the fuel pump pulley?
thanks in advance![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
