When I got my car earlier this year, the 2L engine came with a fuel
pump with crimped sides on it, i.e. no visible way to repair the
diaphragm if needed. There was also a spacer in between the engine
and the fuel pump. Some friends were over to help me with the carbs
and they brought a fuel pump off of a 1600. This one looks like it
could be taken apart and repaired if necessary. Now, when the "new"
pump was installed, the spacer was left off, and yes, I do need to put
a gasket on and seal it, after I get your help here. Are the flow
rates the same for the 1600 and 2000? Actually, the fuel pump did not
seem to be the problem so I am inclined to put the crimped unit and
spacer back on the engine. Opinions please!
