for dummies :doh:

it dont ****in work !!!

green oval link has been u/s for a while.

if you search for "RAVE CD" on this forum, there is a recent thread (3 months or so) which gives details of a new link which does work.

hardest part to this job is removing the pump from the car, usually screw in between 2 cylinders has rusted

good luck with this though

I didn't post a link :doh::doh::doh:

however, the link you have posted does give the right manual, not a website I've come across before.

Hi, getting pump out of housing is simple. The hard work is getting the two studs out which fix the steel brackets holding the plastic housing to the underneath of the car, mines a '06 and they were totally corroded!
Easiest way i found was to reverse up car-ramps to get at the 10mm studs from underneath & when you've loosened them, back off the ramps & jack up rear, take off wheel. Then remove wheel-arch lining & all will be revealed.
You can easily remove the two retaining studs via the wheel-arch now.
Disconnect electrical connector & fuel-pipe & slide pump out.
Think it would be wise to change filter at the same time though but mine was a b'stard to prise out. Hope this helps & good luck.
Ps took me around 3 hours start to finish
