41,000 miles on the original fuel pump and regulator and still going...... That's fate well and truly tempted  I must confess to thinking the same thing!

My pump just died, no pre-warning signs just went straight to its maker. I said to myself no its not dead its just sleeping, banged it about a bit and said that's not sleeping. You know its dead because there is no pressurizing sound on start up, then of course you check the cutoff switch and if still no pressurizing sound - your dead sir. What pump are you going to replace it with? And from where Bruce? I replaced the pump with a Walbro GSS342 from Amazon like this one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000WCY80E/ref=psdc_15728151_t1_B000EVN7W8I searched around to try and ensure it was a genuine Walbro pump. This link is helpful in explaining what is genuine and what is a knock off: https://aftermarket.tiautomotive.com/about/

I used the existing hose by gently heating it with a hairdryer to remove it from the connectors and then fitting to new pump with clamps. I have since ordered the convoluted hose as back up if I need to replace the pump again from Ebay.UK:

Thanks. With those measurements I ended up finding something pretty close from Walbro. It is near impossible to find hose measurements for all the hoses Walbro has but this one looks pretty close. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FMV3AC2/ref=ox_sc_saved_title_1?smid=A3TW1WCPSO49LP&psc=1Walbro TF0001275 Fuel Pump Replacement Hose For the 1/4" spade connectors I found these https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0071NC5NO/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1Supco T1111 Quick Disconnect, High Temperature, 16-14 Gauge, 1/4" Female Tab (Pack of 20) I guess I will quit carrying around the fuel pump in my tool bag and put it to use. For the price of the Walbro you would think the factory would switch. Clearly this is a pretty hefty and quality feeling unit. From one I have read online Walbro has great reliability.

Curious does return line go through the filter and the feed line go directly to the injectors?

That's correct. The filter is on the return side and provides the calibrated restriction that yields the correct fuel pressure.

Is that normal? I would have thought the filter would be between the pump and injectors. I guess it removes the need for a regulator. I think I will consider putting an inline filter before the injectors as well.
