Banpei's new TA60 family cruiser

[banpei]

While being on vacation my mechanic rebuilt the engine and installed it:

This is actually a screenshot of the video he sent me on Wednesday, but forgive me for being lazy and only posting the screenshot.
He said at the end of the video he would test drive the car. On Thursday he called me while I was passing lorries in the left lane on the autobahn, so of course I didn't pick up my phone.

When I called him back he had bad news for me: during the test drive the engine suffered from fuel starvation so I'll also need a new (mechanical) fuel pump. I found out there are actually two types of fuel pumps for the 2T engine: with two and three connections. The former has an inlet from the fuel filter and outlet towards the carburetor. The latter has an additional outlet for a return line. Both seem to have the same partnumber (23100-19105) and diagrams show both types.
The partnumber 23100-19105 is tied to the Carina/Celica TA60 specifically, the TA40 has partnumber 23100-29305. The TA40 part is only available with two connectors so I thought they would be interchangable for the 2T. What also didn't help is that the normal suppliers (e.g. autodoc and such) all consider the TA60 and TA40 parts to be the same, have about 3 or 4 alternatives but don't have any of them in stock.

On the photographs of the engine fuel system I made some time ago I could only find an inlet and outlet on the pump, so my assumption was I have a pump with two connectors. With some digging I found a replacement pump by a Slovenian company for a reasonable price and ordered it:

Then 10 minutes later my mechanic replied to my question and according to him I actually need the one with three connections.
The only one I could find for sale was via Amayama and ordered that one as well, but it was about three times as expensive...


I'll await the arrival of both pumps and see which one will fit and then put the other one for sale in the classifieds.
