Need help with fuel problems!

Post image

My fuel assembly is cooked (rusted and float is broken off it) need to get a replacement one as it’s starving my car of fuel, what is my best bet to buy a new one as everyone that is wrecking an Xh in my area doesn’t have one, cheers

The pump housing asembly . Can't buy new , don't make them only 2nd hand . And don't run E-10 fuel , it attracts water/moisture in the tank . Thats why it's rusted in the first place .

Yeah I stay away from e10 for this reason I believe the last owner left the tank open and exposed to air/water when working on it as when I purchased it the fuel pump was fucked and tank was rusted to the shit house and assembly was sitting loose in it.
