I am gonna buy a Walbro 255 fuel pump off of this dude and he says that it will fit S4 or S5, I went to a web site though and they listed a 255 kit for S4 and one for S5. Should I get it? or no?? if it dosent drop right in could I make it work??

I'm pretty sure the pump will fit 86 - 95. I think there is a wiring kit that you can buy to make the install easier, but I'm not sure because I don't own one.

I've got one in my '89. Very good pump. This pump you are thinking of getting, has it been in a 7 already? Walbro makes the 255lph pump for many different cars. I'm not sure how those are different from one car to another. It might fit. If you can get this in your hands to inspect it, pop your present fuel pump out and line them up side by side. Taking the pump out of the car to look at it takes about a minute or two.

you can make any of the walboro pumps fit in your car... all you need is a hose clamp to strap it to the mount and your good.. Just make sure you mount it so the fuel pick up is in the same place as the stock one and you won't have any trouble...

The kit is the wiring harness and the piece that slides over the top and connects it all up. I HIGHLY recommend getting it, it makes life so much easier when you are installing it.

I have the walbro255 pump in my T2 and it just slips right in.

just take the stock pump out and put the walbro in its place. just fits right in there.

its probably hard to mess up
