Tuning can i fit at inline pump on my 16v cinq?

[tony811976]

finally got my brakes sorted on my cinq 16v conversion and took her for a road test last night for the first time. after a few goes sorting the tracking out, on my return trip she died on me,
turns out the 3bar punto pump had siezed.
when i took it out it would not run forwards, i reversed the wires and it freed
now it works forwards. this pump has no strainer on the bottomso could it have picked up debris?
i only have one more pump which is on my punto gt but my question is can i fit an inline fuel pump and have it switched on the dash will they both freeflow and not restrict each other when either is being used?

is it only important i fit a 3 bar pump and i dont have to worry about l,p,h?
as she is only a std punto 85 lump

Why would you want to fit an inline pump?

Just buy a new drop in one as they are not expensive under £100 new & you get piece of mind of a known working item.

Why has your current pump got no filter on its pickup?

I run a p85 pump in my 1368cc 16v conversion and its fine. When I fitted it, i retained the filters on it that formed the housing.

i did wonder if it was to have a teabag on the end.my p85 didnt have one.
im gonna break my gt and use the pump from that. i did wonder that the p85 pump was longer and so it pushes further down in the housing. maybe it was pushed down too far and touching the base. bit like a hoover pipe stuck on the curtains lol
