is their a difference in the 86-88 and the 89-91 gas tanks?
i saw a walbro 255 fuel pump for a good price. But it is for a 87 N/A that now has a 89 TII in it. So....i am guessing that the gas tank is from the 87 year but will i have a problem with anything going to the engine?

If the car still is running the s4 gas tank, then he should have used a walboro for a 86-88 car. Personally, I would just get a new walboro for $95 off of ebay. Theres a place in philadelphia that sells them for $95 shipped. Anywho, just ask and see if the owner purchased one for a s4 car, or not.

actaully i saw one on ebay for 85 that said 86-88. that is what sparked this. And because the mustard packet 7 needs some things replaced or to just be there on the turbo side of things, i figured a fuel pump might be a good idea.

fuel pump is probably a good idea, as well as all that other fun tune up stuff. oh, if you want to talk to jason about the intercooler stuff, PM me and I can get you his phone number so you can call him.

ill wait til i have all of the money for it so i dont waste his time. But seeing the exhaust is going to be a beat up RB or a custom thing, a non stock IC setup, etc, an FCD, Bosst Controller and SAFCII are in the line up. Mostly becuase this will become my car to drive everywhere and i wont be pissed if i detonated it. The controller i am looking at has four settings and i think the safc does too. Meaning ill have a preformance setting, a low boost around town setting and a emissions? setting. Odds are i am going to do the fail once and come back with a recipet for 456.63 dollars in emissions related repairs thing. since their is no cat and all.

The pumps are the same, the only difference is the peice that holds the pump, the s5 unit is longer than the s4. You can use a 86-88 walbro on a 89-91 just fine.

fc3c is the vert, i was wrong, but all s5's have 18.5 U.S. gallon tanks which is 15.4 imperial gallons, i just read in the 1991 owners manual. i duno why i thought the vert had a smaller tank, oh well sorry for the misinformation.
