Thanks for the offer, Patches, but I muddled my way through it and got it installed and working.

The one mishap I had was one of the cheap-***, plastic tabs that attaches the float assembly to the metal plate broke off and now my gas gauge doesn't work.

Now I have to order a replacement and pull the pump again to fix it.

Oh well. At least the new Lingenfelter pump is working properly!

They should really sell the pump already assembled to the float/scavenge assembly, as this job is over most weekend warriors skill levels. Even then, getting the thing back in is a tedious task!

Tedious?! You're being much too polite. It's actually a royal PITA!
