the manual peddel bolts on the same, and you may have a rubber bung in the bulkhead at the same place (if not drill it).
find the ign live on the multiplug that go,s in the back of old epic pump for the fuel shut-off.

Do you have to change the belt with this mod ? My EPIC seems to be borked but I can't figure out of the pumps will just swap or I need to do all mentioned here.

Is there a narrative/description as to what it occurring? I seem to remember reading on a while ago.

I realise it's an old post but I'm struggling to find a complete description of the correct set up.

Ahh, first post for 2015. This has been the main problem for my otherwise great Transit van, we love it. I have literally spent $thousands on the Lucas pump.

If she who must be obeyed consents I will set off on this well travelled path, otherwise it is off to the wrecker, unless someone might like to buy it from us for the right price as is.
