Not 100% sure when the change over happened to the plastic fuel tank but it's around 1992. If your RR has a plastic fuel tank there will be a hatch in the floor over the fuel pump assembly, which can then be extracted without removing the fuel tank. Your LPG tank if it's inside will possibly be in the way. If your vehicle has either an original steel fuel tank or an accessory rear quarter tank, you will have to drop the tank to access the pump. Some towbars can add a couple of hours to the job, especially the one piece steel bumper bar combos with rusty bolts.
In all cases a generic Holden or Ford 6 cyl submersible EFI fuel pump can be fitted to the pump assembly in place of the buggered one. Once your old one has been extracted it can be matched at any decent parts shop. External pumps require a large low level input pipe or an internal low pressure pump to prevent the high pressure pump cavitating and wearing out prematurely. Not recommended unless you have excess cash to splash.
