Since your original engine was multi-port fuel injected (am I correct?) the stock fuel pump probably has too high of pressure output - 55-62 psi is spec, I believe. Your diesel will only want a low pressure (~5 psi) supply - just enough to basically get the fuel from the tank to the injection pump - and I don't think it will like much more pressure than that.

It's no problem though. You can buy small electric low pressure fuel pumps for cheap.
