Hi Rob, yeah, forgot to mention that small point!! :blush: Evo 4 with 5 engine in..is it replaced from under the rear seats?

 

[RsvRob]

yes
remove back bench
remove inspection cover behind drivers seat
disconnect pipes
unbolt cover and lift out
replace pump
refit in opposite order
done

yes
I did on my 4
cut on edge of inner lid to lift out
when you refit just join with very short piece of fuel line

Hi guys,

Thanx for the advice, much appreciated! looks like someone has already changed pump as the lines are now rubber jobbies?

Popped to Halfrauds yesterday and got meself a nice tool kit, (50% off folks!) guessing I will need it now I have an Evo! :whistling:

All i need now is an expert to come over and diagnose the strange diff problems?? It's on it's second diff??

 

[gooner8]

is it a rs diff or ayc?

 

[AndyK]

AYC im guessing...

 

[gooner8]

hmm evo 4's normally don't have prob with the ayc like the newer evo's do.not saying there bullet proof! So is your ayc light on? Or is there noise or a clucking sound from the diff or rear end?

Hi mate,

AYC light off, but when the AA bloke took her off his truck he noticed a noise and the wheels didnt seem to want to free wheel when it was rolling??

I am waiting for a fuel pump as it died the day I had it..

 

[gooner8]

ok buddy let us no when she's running again.would of thought the ayc light would come on if the diff was playing up? Just so you no my ayc light came on when i had a flat tyre! 5hit my self till i notice it was just a flat tyre! So it mite not be your diff is the point im getting at lol maybe some thing else.
