Every day is a contest - at least that is what it seems like some times. By the way, I had a fuel pump go out on my suburban. We cut a small hole in the floor behind the drivers seat. The fuel pump is then easily accessible, and you don't need to drop it. Worked like a charm, and far less work. Hate to hear about the dog.
I did think about that great idea. So sad about my dog
I hate to promote youtube, but there are some great vids on how to do it. Sad too!
