mfi electric fuel pump wiring protective cap, boot

[47silver]

does anyone know the part number for the wiring boot on the mfi electric fuel pump?
i looked through the pet and could not find anything.

My guess is that it is part of the wiring loom to the pump and was not available separately at the time. If you're not too bent on originality, the one from the backup switch might fit: 914 613 491 00

You were correct it is the same boot as used on the reverse switch. Thanks for the heads up

You posted as I was! Other than the boot any other fuel issues?

After redoing the fuel system on the 72T we have some suggestions:
1. Replace all hoses (they look good on the outside but are very brittle). Cut them exactly to the dimensions shown on the PET.
2. Replace any suspect clamps.
3. Remove and have fuel tank cleaned.
4. New fine filter at tank.
5. Remove fuel filter housing (remove the cold start valve) then clean the housing.
6. Test the cold start valve with 12 volt. Do not lose the spacer and seal.
7. New through body grommets for the metal fuel lines.
8. Pressure test at 100 PSI the fuel iines running through the tunnel, replace if any leaks. (not an easy tas).
9. Replace the electric fuel pump or have it rebuilt.
10. Install a new rubber boot on the electrical connection to the fuel pump. The connectors come apart with a very fine blade screwdriver and then you can install the new boot.
11. Do not use apple cider vinegar on magnesium parts.
12. Bag and mark ever fitting, gasket, clamp, hose, wiring protector etc.
