Mike:

At this point in the procedure I add the step of putting a blanket or tarp in
the trunk to come between me and all the sticky stuff (glue on the carpet,
stuff I've spilled, etc.) in there.  Keeps me from having to scrub so hard to
get the grime off.  Learned this trick when I did my first fuel pump.

Later.
