cheers budgie funny you should say that because i was going to buy a fuel pump off him but then found out my clutch was slipping so sent him a reply telling him i cant buy the pump at the moment and if he knew anyone local to fit it... why does he fit them himself or does he know people?

Expect to pay around £200. It's about half a days job. Any competent mechanic local to you should be able to do it.

Agreed with above but the prices you have been quoted sound like they include the parts. You sound like you already have the parts??
