how do i change my petrol pump on myfiat punto?

You need to lift up the rear seat base, and the petrol pump is located under it.

It looks from the top like a 5 inch circle of unpainted metal. The ring that holds it in can be gently tapped away (careful - you really do not want to make a spark!) in an anti-clockwise direction, as you would norally unscrew something.

The pump lifts up - careful with the float - if you knock it, it will give you inaccurate fuel level readings on your dashboard. Unplug the wires, and plug in the new one.

A fairly easy job, can be done easily under 15 mins including refitting.
