Austin Seven Special fuel pump

Strangely, after several months without use the Seven refused to start. I soon noticed the lack of the SU fuel pump's usual regular ticking sound and no whacking or smacking made any difference, so It was time to remove the pump for inspection. This was not so easy as the pump was tucked away deep in the footwell. I decided to move the pump to a more accessable position in the engine bay, making future inspections and roadside fixes much easier. The pump was dead allright, so I decided to fit a new SU pump. I used the existing holes to attach a bracket for the pump. I also noticed a leak from the fuel cock, also tucked away far into the footwell, so now the tank had to come out as well. Fortunately most of the Ecomaxx had leaked away, so removal of the tank was fairly easy, so I could change the seal on the bench, before refitting the Tank.
