fuel pump install check list:

* make sure your gas tank is as close to empty as possible.
* get at least a paper mask to breath through unless you're in to huffing gas.
* Disconnect the 6 pin connector on top of the fuel plate, start the car(or try). This depressurizes the fuel lines.
* Disconnect the negative battery terminal.
* place blue paper shop towels around the lines and disconnect them.
* Unscrew fuel plate cover, lift and rotate.
* be patient when rotating the assembly to get it out.

It's all very easy to do, just be safe about it. Worst thing that happened to me when I did mine was I forgot a hose clamp so had to do the job twice. I breathed in so much fumes that I had the worst head ache of my life the next day.

 

yes, once you've done it, it takes no time at all. After realizing I forgot a hose clamp, I was able to remove the fuel pump assembly in about 10 minutes.

 

Ya, the only tricky part is getting everything seated correctly. Another thing that delayed me was that I needeed to cut the part of the stock line off to fit my walbro.
Oh yea, and if karlton wants to host thats fine with my =)

 

if you come i need a dent pulled. =].
-ahh where were you guys last night i installed my turbo timer and didnt know you had to have a power cord+ harness. so my friend and i had to cut and tape. and sauder[idk how its spelled. man im SP noob] couldnt find any diagrams on what wires were what and to get the alarm to work was kinda hard too...

 

But you had a wagon, which was way easier to get to. Maybe a little longer since you'll have to climb into the trunk.

 

so when is this bad boy going down? or has it already happened.....

 

We are just tossing the idea up. Someone just needs to host. That's about it.

I have a laundry list of things I have that I need to install...I can come for sure, with some shnacks of course!
