New rear axle fitted now :-) found a 40x5mm pipe for just 45dollars at the local Machine Shop.


 Also remowed the batterypowered fuelpump + battery & alla electrics related to this.

& fitted an mechanical fuelpump from an Volvo B18 engine.
It now sits just in front od the rear axle and moves by an welded on "thing" on the axle.
A small ballbearing sits on the edge of the fuelpump to make it "float" easier.

 If you consider this in favour of an batterypowered fuelpump, then this is so much better,

Also, it did not cost anything  :-)
 but what i did forget to mention was taht there will be a 0,2L fuelcatchtank just before the carburator with a returnline, so the carb wont be blown up by the fuelpreassure..

Just one question
This looks like it's mounted to the rear axle
So what happens when the rear axle isn't turning?
