They rate the fuel pump at 3 wrenches. Did the fuel pump. It wasn't overly difficult. Super tedious. But not hard. I arguably made it harder by parking the car such that I couldn't get in through the passenger door.

They rate the 3 port EBCS at 1 wrench. 1 wrench, I'm thinking this **** is going to be a cakewalk. Nah. I can barely reach any of the hose connections. Half the original hoses don't want to come off. Half the new hoses don't want to go on. The instructions made no mention that I would need to reuse a couple pieces from the original set-up. It was truly more effort than it should have been.
