On my 82 Coupe it is hard to start when it has been sitting for more than 30
minutes.

After testing ,checking, and replacing lots of items it still does it.

I am told this is due to a bad fuel pump check valve.  I can get one for $25,
but the question becomes how do you replace it?  Looking at a new fuel pump I
don't see how to remove the check valve.

On the other hand I can just get a whole new pump for $135 w/ a lifetime
warranty.....what sounds wisest?  It is awfully embarassing to have a car
that cranks for 10 seconds before it starts.
