Re: [T3] Fuel pump mounts

[Russell Wolfe <russella@netins.net>]

I got my mounts from McMaster-Carr http://www.mcmaster.com They are an
industrial supply company, and I think they have a minimum order. Mine were
exact matches for the originals, 6mm and all. except I got the urethane ones
(won't deteriorate as fast, and are stronger). If you know someone that can buy
from them, try it. I think they cost me about 2.00 each.
