Hi, I'm currently in the market for a fuel pump assembly for my 04 1.2 8v and the haynes manual has the flow listed as 120l/r

The only new units I can find are somewhere between 70 and 90l/h

Is this another case of the haynes manual being wrong, or am I looking in the wrong place?

Thanks
 
Or you are looking at "wrong" parameter (means - not much you can do about it). It is not that crucial.
In practice pressure is the main concern. Make sure it is the same, nominal (or a bit higher), 3,0-3,5 bar or so I guess.
Then less flow will not be a problem during normal driving (unless it's a sports car, racing).

The eLearn says 110 l/h: https://aftersales.fiat.com/elearnsections/main.aspx?nodeID=3118663&languageID=2&markID=1&modelID=2000003&valID=2000308&prodID=2003009&modelName=Fiat - 188 - Punto Classic&langDesc=English&sectionName=Descrizioni&validityName=1.2 8v&isExaminer=
