Hi

I've just received my mpi pump from minispares to find it's a lot smaller then the original one that came out.
Also the cradle/holder needs modifying for it to hold it properly. And I'll need to tie wrap it to hold it in position. Basically it's not a straight swop!
Before I start cutting my cradle/pump holder up is this normal or have I been send the wrong pump?
Wanted to fit this and fire her up tonight. I obviously can't ring ms as there closed!!

Thanks
Josh

Yeah, they're not a direct fit, i had to trim down the fuel feed tube to fit the pump in if i remember right, and the filter was a right pain to get on the pump!

ring problems are down to wear or abuse but although annoying it isn't a show stopper

 Is it A-Series only? I think it should be...
So when some joey comes on here about how his 16v turbo vauxhall is great compared to ours, he can be given the 'bird'...
