Re: V8Q Fuel Pump

["Gaidos, A." <agaidos@got.net>]

Not long ago I did the fuel pump in my wife's '91 200q which is not supposed
to have the V8 setup ... but it does. When I first reached in there to get
it out the pump was more or less just laying there. That made me feel good.
Once I went to put it back in it took me a number of tries to "lock" it in,
again using my hand. It wasn't too tough other then the climbing around in
the trunk with my arm shoved in the gas tank.
