[QUOTE="Imatk, post: 16146896, member: 75573"] Sorry to hear that happened to you. I, like others have written in this thread, tend to do all the work I can on my car. Some things I don't mess with simply because I don't have a lift and don't feel like screwing with pulling a transmission on my back, things like that. When that occurs I have a guy I trust that I take the car to... but even then it took a long time to find someone who was competent and honest. It DOES help knowing how to turn wrenches yourself when finding a decent mechanic. Especially if they know you aren't a complete novice when it comes to your car. I BTW started to do my own work after a shop (which is now out of business because.... they sucked ) charged me ridiculous prices for shoddy work and had my car for over a YEAR. That kind of thing will spur your ass into action :) I would also like to know why you went with different pumps. Were you running out of fuel on the other pumps? For this car replacing a pump is pretty easy really since you can access them in the back seat. On my Fox you have to drop the tank which is a bit more of a pain. But if it wasn't a plug-n-play type deal you probably still could handle it yourself with a call to Lund. Good luck and I hope it all turns out well for you. [/QUOTE]
