fuel pump types interchangeable?
#3
Yes.

But you need to check the T type pump has the correct arm for the A7.

The T type was used on many different cars.

Someone will come on here (probably) with the numbers you need to see, cast onto the arm.

The inlet and outlet positions are different. You cannot get the right by moving the top relative to the bottom.

The outlet can more or less be lined up with the existing pipe, the inlet is then about 180 degrees out.

I have made a short conversion pipe, extending the original, taking it under the pump to meet the inlet.

I didn't want to permanently mod the pipes. Not yet.

Most T types have a priming lever, and spares are available. Which is why it is worth doing.

Note the arm from the M type will not fit a T type, though I am working on a bodgy conversion just for my own amusement.
