Need to borrow a fuel pump

I think my fuel pump is buggered, so I would like to borrow one to make sure it is the problem before I go out and buy one.

The vehicle is an 89 Range Rover classic with the 3.5lt V8 motor.

If anyone can help I would really appreciate it.

It would also be good if you wanted to sell it, because if it is the problem I will buy it from you.

is there a difference between hotwire and flapper, I know my 88s and 89 flappers are like this Image but it is just a bosch pump, just the mount is specific to Rover

If you were closer I have a spare here.

I always carry a spare in my tool draw. Too bad you're not a bit further north.

Hi Corgi Mother,

I'll be going from Queenscliff to Hall's Gap on Friday if that's any help to you.
