   Hi
   
   I need to get a new fuel pump. Motor factors are quoting £140 - sound excesive.
   
   There are some on eBay for £60 - but am nervous of getting the wrong one. Are there different variations, or should they all be good so long as I get one for the right model?
   
   I have a 98R Saxo VTS 1.6 16v.
   
   Thanks

   there are different ones for different clocks, you need the right one else you wont know what fuel level you have.
   
   £30 from a scrap yard from the right car in most cases

   Cheers. Is there any way of finding out what part number I need?

   Cheers - If one on eBay was for a mk1 Saxo VTS/16v would that not be the right one? Obviously I wouldn't buy one for a 1.1, but surely if it fits the model year and engine size it should be right?
