Got this in the mail today and will be installing in the spring along with new center bearing ,guibo and probably some fuel lines.
I paid $166.71 .Great deal I thought but will see how it goes in.
Bought it here.

Wow, that is a good deal. Thanks for sharing it. I have one too, waiting for the spring...it's new OEM yet looks exactly like yours. Mine doesn't leak but has been heavily dented on the passenger side. Happily, I didn't pay full retail...RealOEM lists it at over $500. Insane.
I wish the bigger six-cylinder tank (63 liter vs. 55 liter) would fit. The extra two gallons might be nice but more importantly the six-cyl tanks are much easier to come by. It has a transfer pump IIRC that wouldn't work with our car's wiring.

Good deal. I see you're in Maine. You might want to take some time and add some additional rust proof paint and then some underbody coating for longevity.

Why is there only one send/pump hole in the tank? I thought all TI's had 2 senders ?
My 95 has two...

That's a good idea and maybe I'll do that but I don't drive the car in the winter .It's still a good idea though.

91 only has one fuel pump,are you sure there's two pumps on a 95?

Does it include the small "transfer tube" at the bottom? and how much was it for shipping?
