Disregard that previous post !!
Did not measure the tank filler outlet myself and it's 43 mm = 1 3/4 not 1 1/2 or 38 mm , I might get the 38 mm hose on the tank end while it's on the bench but no way is one going to get it on the other end while fitting the tank up and in !!
Job over til tomorrow .

All going well tank on bench with new pump in it !!
Anybody who wants/needs some fuel filler hose I have some spare , payed for one metre of 38mm suction hose and received two.
A new OEM hose was $123 and 4 weeks plus out of Japan.
Can be had from the States for $65 plus freight but also 4 to 5 days away.
Best way is to fit it on as the tank goes back in.

All good tips Doug. I found breaking the 20yo seal on the filler pipe the most difficult part. Still not the most enjoyable thing to do though.

Disconnect the battery!! Tank as empty as possible. Car as high as possible both front and back.
Car stable on good jack stands!! Break loose fuel filler rubber hose from steel hose from filler cap.
Take care not to damage or kink the plastic high pressure fuel line between tank and filter as you
lower the tank!!! You may choose to remove the exhaust for easier access. Mind the oxygen sensor.
It's not fun but quite doable. I've done three now. The rest is pretty straight forward.
Take your time and enjoy a job well done.

Are you working off a guide on how to tackle this job? Definitely recommend it if you aren't.

I have not personally done a pump before but I've read many stories over the years :) Make sure the tank is almost empty as apparently it is quite challenging to handle/manipulate it (especially if done laying under the vehicle at home)

You funny man MR Skyjoker !!
Got the center console off and having trouble finding the cover plate for the electrical pump connections , do the late model SW20's actually have them !!
Will have a better look in the morning and already having express fun !!

$103.40 for a Denso is good. Congrats. Enjoy fitting it :)

Not bad. When you include the $14.28AUD postage to Oz the total is about $145AUD via Amazon. Cheaper then the chest Ebay deal (approx. $160AUD)

I just did a bit of searching for you and it appears that you can get a non-genuine kit (By Denso) for the AW11-SW20 N/A.

Twosrus has it listed as follows:
https://twosrus.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=22_69&products_id=452

Denso part number is 950-0147. Does not appear to be available on Oz websites but just buy from OS/Ebay.

Ebay worldwide search sorted by cheapest price + postage.
http://www.ebay.com.au/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_sacat=0&_nkw=950-0147+denso&LH_PrefLoc=2&_sop=15

That way you get OEM reliability for aftermarket pricing.

Thanks for that but having seen a couple of Walbro pumps cut open I'm not a fan of them .
If I was going to for a better pump it would be a Bosch .

This MR2 parts place in the US has very good prices on Walbro fule pumps. Obviously the listing is in $US and you then have to adding shipping costs.
