I have seen people who used a tap to thread into the piece and pull it, the 
Samba post I sent the link to used a lag bolt, some break it apart, let it fall 
in and retrieve pieces later, and also saw where someone cut just the top 
flange off the new one and bolted it down with the gaskets, since the broken 
piece will not fall in due to it being tapered.

Subject: [vintagvw] Fuel Pump


Hello all,



I am just rejoining the list after a two year absence due to work problems (my 

old company folded and I was able to get a job 110 miles away). I had to get 

alternative transportation and had to put the bug in storage in our garage. 

 Anyway, I was able to find another job only 20 miles away and have decided to 

get the bug running again.



I have done a major tune up but when replacing the intermediate flange under 
the 



fuel pump, it broke half way down, where the sleeve enters the boss.  How do I 

get that out? and if it is not a somewhat easy fix, how difficult is putting in 

an electronic fuel pump.  It is a 74 Standard Beetle, 1600dp, generator.



Thanks for your help and I'm glad to be back



Chuck

Cortez, CO
