Fuel Tank and equipment
This tank had a problem with the weld not holding the balfolds and forming a hole
The tank bolts up behind the boot and holds 65 litres of fuel. Fuel senders
The two different types of sender units used in the P76. You will notice the later model has two pipes and was used to return fuel from the carbureter . (this over come some of the early problems with fuel starvation).
This is a filter found on the bottom of the sender to stop rubbish getting into the mechanical fuel pumps.
Fuel pumps
This is V8 mechaical fuel pump and is fold under the alternator on the left hand side of the engine and is also prone to leaked oil from the gasket.
The six E series engine used the a similar unit but with a shorter pump arm and ran off the camshaft on the opposite side of the manifold. No Mechical Pump
The pump has been removed and electrical one has replaced it
