ok,

premix photos here. what is wrong with these pics?

this is a used pump. that was clean and fine that was put in early november.. this is after i started doing the shake and fill at half tank.

so far the pump with this bad sock is running fine with the new sock.. as it should. the test is that once the pump fails and over heats the damage is done.. i have ~ 340 miles on this pump. so far gas mileage is up 2 mpg. idle is very smooth again.. :)

btw, the light source for pic #2 is the sun.. flow matters!

beers :beer:

i'll wait for your pics and updates :)

Does anyone have an extra yellow writing pad?
I seemed to have misplaced mine. :uhh:

WTF? I've been waiting for this thread.

wow i got nowhere with this...i saw swoopes name..what a bad idea

Look like a tool to remove the fuel pump retaining ring??

Yep...............think so!
But then again.....I kinda cheated, in a strange sorta way.

^haha that's what i'm gonna go with too!!!

Let me get it out of the way...I told you so :)

Well get on with it Swoope! We don't have all day to sit around and wit for you to pull that beeatch out. Pics, we demand pics.

Preferably of hot girls in bikinis doing the work. I like it when they point to the work as it's being done. Like Barkers Beauties from the "Price is Right".

If I'm following this correctly (swoope's one liners always confound me) sounds like a good case for a SOHN going in AFTER the fuel tank.

pre-mixing bad, imagine that.

OMG! Ur so SMART!!!
