Will try to get one later in the week. My car isn't here, but that doesn't help anyway as the diff isn't in it and the fuel pump is off anyway.

I had to do one on my RA65 a week or two ago, and it's a tank out job. It's not that bad once you get in and do it though - worst part is actually getting the pump back IN around the baffles the right way - lovely little monkey puzzle. I THINK that earlier cars (pre '84?) had the external pump and later ones have it in the tank. I heard that someplace anyway...

fwiw, tank removal in the MA61 is a breeze compared to the RA40. It took much swearing and unpleasantness to get the RA40 tank inlet into its rightful spot and the tank in the right spot. The MA61 was really easy and simple.

Most awkward part of the Supra tank in/out thing was rubik's-cube pump insertion techniques.

Shinny, you would've heard that from the yanks. The Supra over there before 1983 (i think?) had external pumps whereas every other supra after that year had internal pumps.
