All the pumps are the same across all petrol Scorpio models.

I'd think fitting would be between 70 and 100.

Hello, euro car parts run lots of "exclusive" discounts after you have bought from them, sometimes as much as 40% for online orders.
Or you can try your local depot and blag a bit.
These pumps are on ebay at a lot cheaper but watch seller ratings as a lot of bad ebayers out there.

There is a Cars for Sale thread so perhaps you'd like to place the details of the car on there. :)

hi guys I think the pump you are showing me is for 2.0 only my car is a 2.3 and it tells you on the main scorpio site that it is an in tank fuel pump with sender unit you may beg to differ cheers chaps.

2.0 & 2.3 fuel pumps should be the same.

Yes it is an in tank fuel pump with sender unit.
I take it from the link you can remove the pump from the unit and replace just that, but whether that is possible I don't know.

I believe the pumps are the same on all petrol versions except the Cosworth which has a more powerful pump.

All petrol models use the same pump (even the Cosworth) and yes, it's and in tank pump/sender combo.

Not a job for the faint-hearted! Not only would you need to drop the tank out remembering all those rusty bolts, you'll need to have a very dexterous hand with a chisel and hammer to loosen the pump-flange-body, and take it out without damage to the 'lip' of the flange. I installed a new fuel tank to my 2.3 last year, the worst job was fitting the pump. Very difficult to seat the pump with a new seal, took three goes. That was with a new tank, and a complete replacement of home-made Stainless Steel 'Tank-Straps'. It's a difficult job. I would say, a two man job, and still not easy.

I bought a new pump a few years ago from nationalclearancecentre the Ford ebay listing.
It was listed as being for the Cosworth, I checked at the time & there were different part no's I assumed it was more powerfull but that may not be the case.
The online listings show different part no's
1076231 for 2.0/2.3
1054530 for both 2.9 versions
Whether there's a difference I haven't a clue.

1076231 is a mere £440.36 + VAT at allcarpartsfast ;D

Did you check on ebay - pumps are available separately or is it the sender unit which has failed ?
Some pumps state for 2.0 but the 2.3 should be the same.
