Need some help, Fuel Pump Assembly..

[Criscone240]

Hey well i just got my Walbro 190lph fuel pump from extremepsi.com (amazing people by the way i get my stuff within 2 days an im in NY).. Anyways i went to put it in today and when i was trying to loosen the fitting i must have slipped or something cause it twisted the metal line that goes into the pump assembly causing it to leak badly so i twisted it all the way which snapped it off.. Its kinked badly at the 90 degree bend theres no way to get a hose on it..Now ive been told 2 things..

1-Get the proper hose, drill a hole smaller then the hose next to the metal line basically bypassing that then stick the hose in there, clamp it to the pump and then clamp it to the line coming off the fitting.. Now im scared of leaks with this setup..

2-Brake line,jbweld an some other shit i dunno it was some crazy stuff i wont even mention it..

Reason im lookin to sorta fix it is because 1-i have work sunday,2-i have no money besides 20 bucks and 3-theres not a lot of junkyards willing to sell that peice for a decent price... let me kno thanks-

I feel for you. I know you don't want to here this... but you need a new fuel pump assembly.
Option #1 is pretty MacGiverish. Good luck.
Option#2 is only a temperay fix, 1-3 days at best, because fuel will eat a way JB weld.

Try Gary at MitsuGraveyard and see if he has one. New from the dealership they are over $400. When I bought mine two years ago from M&S Recycling in Calif it cost me $100 for a clean unrusted one.

do this:

get a 5/16 line, drill out the old one, re-use the fitting, and use quicksteel to support the line. Don't ask questions, don't get another POS from the junkyard, and don't use jb weld, gas eats it. Quicksteel is made for patching gas tanks.
