where are the fuel pumps located? are they in the engine bay or fuel tank? I'm just trying to start the half cut and trying to work out whats what. from what i can work out, theres 3 lines. one i assume is the fuel return line, one going to the fuel and pump and maybe a breather? There seems to be two small cylinders up against the firewall which to me look like a swirl pot and fuel pump. However the one i think is the fuel pump, i can't see any electrical wires going to it.Any ideas?

the one that looks like the pump its the fuel filter and the other is the charcoal canister.

cheers. any idea which pipe is which? looking from behind where the gear lever is, there are 5 pipes. the two inner ones are brake lines, then there are 3 more lines, 1 bigger than the other two. which ones which? can someone describe where the fuel goes in what order? ie, fuel tank-fuel pump-charcoal canister-fuel rail, return line.?

okay with mine i cut the line just before the fuel filter is the thicker one of the ones you mentioned. then the return i just put a piece of hose on the rail the end with the little pressure reg. fuel goes tank, pump, fuel filter, fuel rail, return hose, tank. the charcoal canister is connnected to the fuel tank its mainly emmissions. fuel pump is upto you . depends on what your going to do to the motor in the future. you can go vl turbo setup. low pressure pump feeding high pressure but id put a swirl pot in between tho two.
