anyone renewed the fuel pump on their S2 ?
Can anyone tell me where it is and how I get to it. I assume that the fuel filter is adjacent ? I'd better replace that first I guess.
I think there is a fuel delivery problem but the DME looks ok so I am assuming its either the filter blocked with water or the pump has packed .
She'll turn over fine but there is scarecly any attemp at firing just an occasional cough and splutter.

 
The fuel pump is located under the metal cover that fell off mine on the way to the Frontrunner event. There's a metal strap thet holds this on to the tank, with a jubilee clip to hold the pump in place, this strap was the bit that rusted away on mine. It's a pig to get it all back in again, so do the filter first as that's easy!

There's one bolt, picture from Clarks below.

thanks Paul
I have just spent the past 15 minutes perusing Clarkes site. Its incredable the amount of guides on there.
I'm going to do a timed fuel delivery test first then if the pressure is low I'll change the filter. If that doesn't do the trick I'll clean the tank filter . Then I guess it will be the fuel pump groan.
