replacing fuel pump from under the rig
I know you can do that by dropping the tank , problem is , im limited with my spill catching recources , and i need to clean the carpet any ways , maybe re insulate the floor cuz its just NASTY , mildew and all kinds of unsanitary **** thats been accumilating for the last 22 years ..lol .. any body got an idea of what kind of insulation i could use ??? i figure i just wanna buy a roll and cut it out my self to save some money , has any one else done this ? did it work out well ?

WELL FUG me running ... lol ... yeah , parts guys seem pretty damn worthless now a days ... I allready got all the seats out , i think im going to order the pump online and save a few pennies , this carpet is horrid under the seats so it needs to be dealt with regardless... as far as getting to the pump from under the car , your saying i would not need to drop the tank out to do so ? that seems much easier .
