>What? The two nuts that are visible from above that sit on
either side of the fuel pump assembly are connected to two
loose bolts coming through the side cover (which is in turn
attached by 5 or 6 bolts to the actual side of the engine)?
So how does anyone successfully remove the pump by
removing the two pump body nuts?
I don't have my factory service manual here at work, and it's
been years since I replaced the fuel pump on my SIII, so I
don't recall every move I made during the process. But I know
for a FACT that I did not remove the engine side cover, just whatever
it is that holds the pump assembly to the side of the block. Possibly
the IIa version of the engine uses a different fastener system, but on the
2.25 petrol SIII, there certainly was no need to remove the engine side
cover.
