What fuel pumps fit as replacement for T2?

Filled car up today then broke down 100m down the road so got towed home.

Taking the fuel line off and turning the ignition on theres only a very slow drip of fuel and the pump is making a higher pitch sound the normal like its not picking any fuel up.

I suspect that the fuels dirty and have stuffed the pump up since it was very brown coming out up by the filter.

So what uprated pump can I fit with out too much modification?

Is kind of urgent since I need a car.
Thanks.

Ive been using a bosch "910" pump for ages, is slightly larger in physical size but does fit.
flows MORE than enough for a city...

cant remember if there was any modification required on the fuels lines sorry..

Cheers

If making enquiries dont forget to tell them it is fuel injection motoras I think the normal City E ones are different.
Maybe your tank has water in it?
Drain it then pour in a litre or two of meths.
Leave the cap off and the meths evaporates taking out the water as vapour.

Already been sorted.
Fuel was dirty and had bits of rubber and string in it.
Fuel station gave me compensation. Of the price of the fuel and a gift voucher.
No damaged was done once it was drained out and I air compressed the lines to clean everything out.
