The 2.0 Gli should have the same type tank n pump setup as the 3.0i.
If memory serves me, the first injected sapphires had an external fuel pump , below the spare wheel. This may be an option to convert to external pump.
After 1991, they changed to the plastic tanks with internal pump, which I can confirm, is quite rare. Getting an internal type pump could be a pain.
