Fuel Pump Wires Questions!
https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.rx7...b4c90707e.jpeg
So the bolt on the left broke and snapped in half. Was wondering if that was a big deal? <br/>I am currently installing a new fuel pump. <br/>Was wondering if I could continue installing it and leave this as it is or if it is a by deal and needs to be fixed before putting it back together?<br/>If so then how would I go about replacing it https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.rx7...7c92ecbf7.jpeg |
I've had this happen. You can take a Dremel tool and grind off the top layer of epoxy on the top of the assembly, this will expose the top of the eyelet. You can then drill out the center and use a stainless steel nut, lock washer, and bolt to make the repair. Be sure to drill out as little of the brass as possible to allow a solid connection.

I think that's part of the level sender, IIRC. So no, you don't HAVE to, but while it's out you might as well, right? We don't need any more broken RX7's out there, there's too many already :)

Yep, that's the resistance signal for the fuel level sensor. Not a big deal if you don't mind having a non-working gauge. Don't worry, the low fuel warning light should still work. I wouldn't worry too much able replacing the post. Just find some creative way of holding the ring terminal to the copper plate. Solder?
