1978-99GL-fuel pump adaptor sleeve Posted by Adam [Email] (#344) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Adam) on Sat, 12 May 2007 07:16:27 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
Recently I noticed a strong smell of fuel in the car and some drops on the ground. I went to check the tank, the fuel pump and the line, and to my great surprise fuel was all over the trunk, covering the top of pump completely. The fuel pump was actually floating in the tank… and I couldn’t find any sealing ring, cup, or adaptor sleeve that supposed to seal and to hold the pump in it’s position in the tank. I spoke to my mechanic, and he told me that he can get a new pump for me, but he got no idea where to find the adaptor sleeve. I also called Paul Miller, the local Saab dealer, and they told me that they hold no parts for pre 80 Saab. My questions are: Where is the old sleeve? Just dissolved over time? Where can I get another fuel pump sealing/cup/adaptor sleeve? Thank you all,
Adam
