When I pulled mine for a Walbro swap, not only was it in perfect condition, it also had a Walbo on it :biglaugh:
Of course, I still used the one I bought since there were so many fakes from China. :3d_frown:

Looks like a set of jumper cables there too. Every MKIII should have those!

Maybe a twizzler laying on the ground too? Should I have an emergency twizzler in my MKIII?

Ordering a pump and fuel filter today...

I know this thread is old, but I just wanted to thank you guys for your help. New walbro and fuel filter and the car started right up! Maybe I should start a build thread...

Maybe you should...
Good to hear you got it sorted out. Now this all took place over a year ago. When did you actually do the swap and get the car running?

About two weeks ago! LOL

I had a $1500 drain issue to fix right after I had made that post and my funds once again had shifted away from the Supra.

I've got an exhaust on the way and my driver's seat is at the interior shop getting a rip fixed.

Gonna be on the lookout for head studs and MHG soon as well as a new clutch. Raise at work helped a lot.
