Fuel pump - which inlet/outlet?

I'm changing the fuel pump on KC and it's a Mitsubitshi number. It's a Honda 'Blade pump and came in great condition but I'm not swapping it like for like.

Based on this photo would anyone have an educated guess which is the inlet and which is the outlet?

Thanks all

Michael

no idea, cant you just hook it up to 12v with a hose on one hose tail and see if it sucks or not?

12 volts across it thum on the end you will feel it either suck or expel air





Life is like a bowl of fruit, funny how all the weird looking ones are left alone

Thanks Austin - Did as you suggested. Wasn't keen to try with fuel or liquid incase I fricked it up!

Pump now fitted (ish) but tested and it seems to be a good'un, and for the first time in over a year KC spluttered to a start!


Thanks all for your help

Michael
