Default Fuel Pump Location

Merry Christmas everyone!

Trying to resolve my fuel issue on my 1970 Amazon.

Can anyone help me locate my fuel pump?

Want to try and clear all fueling issues but can't locate it!

Thanks in advance.

But sometimes a picture can say a thousand words for those needing guidance

If you are paying I will happily take it to a garage. Otherwise it's out the question! Everyone has to learn somewhere dont they??

I took a photo on my phone but can't upload it from there. So will upload a picture when I am at my laptop.

Cheers

Cool

I agree SE10, a picture doesn't tell a 1000'words! My car is exactly the same as the the picture......to preserve the appearance of originality.....But the electric fuel pump is situated else where!

There is no such thing as a silly question, only questions. Feel free to ask any time. That's how I started.

Very true, we all had to start somewhere.

SE10, if you still have problems with your fuel system keep posting the Q?'s Logically, you may find it's just your fuel filters and flexible lines that need replacing.

As note, be sure to remove fuel pump bowl and brass filter...give the fuel pump innards a thoroughly good clean...WD40 works a treat...same for the brass filter. Reassemble and refit with a new pre-filter. You'll be amazed at how much crud there can be inside.
