Re: [tech] Transfer Pump




You can tell by the size of the fuel tank, which you can tell by the size
of the spare tire well.  If the spare tire well will only hold a donut
spare, then you have a 55L tank with a transfer pump.  If you look
underneath the rear of the car, ahead of the back tire, and see a small
elbow pipe coming out of the bottom of the fuel tank and going into the
fuel pump, you don't have a transfer pump.

The cutover was sometime in mid January 1984 production, any time before
that and you should have the old style tank.
