Re: Some Fuel Pump Help Asap? Thanks!

a new fuel pump is cheap to its like 20-25 bucks.. and then theres a plug u can take out after u get the fuel pump out and then you can ram a screw driver in the hole where the plug went so it can hold the rod from coming out.. then shove in your fuel pump then tighten the plug then tighten fuel pump.. it took me less then 30 minutes to swap mine out.. i did it on my lunch break one day... u just need to shove a bolt in your lines and clamp the line on the bolt otherwise you will lose all your gas.. i lost all mine that way because i just let it drip all in a pan

or i use a gob of sticky grease on the push rod end that goes into the block to hold the rod up there for the ten seconds it takes to aline the pump and bolt it on.

Hey guys, I broke down and changed it. It wasn't bad at all. Kinda feel like a tard worrying about the difficulty of it!

Thank you all for your quick and generous responses!
