Getting ready to replace the fuel pump in my 89 Jetta with Digifant. It has the main pump under the car thats enclosed in a box. My question is does it matter how the outer screen filter casing is positioned on the pump before sliding the unit into the sump box?...I know.....I should have made a reference of it before I took the old one out but didnt think about it.

Re: Fuel pump question (Eric D)

Thanks Eric. I was thinking that maybe the way it went but wasnt sure.
I found out why the main pump went out. I took the intank pump/sender out to drain the tank and everything rubber on the unit was nothing but black goo....even the gasket at the top of sender. It was a mess. Gos to show you what sitting for a year will do to a fuel system. Debating now on whether to take the tank itself out and have it flushed.
Gonna pick up the sending unit I got the intank pump off of tomorrow.....should have gotten it when I got the other pumps

Maybe then I can get the beast running again.
