Well, his past week I decided to replace the fuel pump in my 1994 Chevy truck. It had started to give problems early last winter so we did a temporary patch job by plumbing in a electric fuel pump in front of the filter, only had to cut the one wire to power it that way. Early last week I decided to pick up a new pump and fix it right and that involved removing the box. It wasn't too bad a job but I also wanted to give the box and frame a good wash job while I could and that was a PITA to do, I've had the truck Rust Checked since I owned it in 1997 and since that's a oil based product over the years it's dried out considerably and become very sticky and difficult to wash off. In the end I got it all clean and the pump changed and I repaired the wiring harness in several places...the insulation over the years has become a little brittle and I found a few cracks in the insulation that required fixing and someone else had at one time been in there before I owned the truck and "worked their magic" on the wiring and I had to repair that too. I managed to do the job in my driveway so it wasn't too bad but for an almost 64 yo fat old old man who's been retired for 6 years...let's just say doing it once proves I can still do it but doing it twice would be showing off!
