though for me, you'd have to change it to 10 inches, and you'd have to change inches to millimeters, and you'd have to change 10 to 5 and you'd have to change dick to poor excuse for one.

Thats where you get it. Instal is not that hard. Search www.dsm.org . Look through the vfaq.com section. You will find instructions there.

The pump swap isnt bad at all hardest part is getting the fuel line loose get some Blaster and let it soak on the fittings over night they can be a major PITA to loosen!!

If the car is FWD make sure to do it on an empty tank or be prepared to drain the fuel in the tank. The fuel pump bracket on the FWDs is held in place by a bolt through the bottom of the fuel tank doubles as a drain plug for the fuel tank you have to take the bolt out to remove the fuel pump assembly you also need to loosen the rear holding straps for the fuel tank to let it drop just enough to get the fuel pump assembly out.

All in all not bad to change out the higher you can get the rear the easier it will be car lift is very desirable.

its really simple man.... REALLY simple....... heck I can tell you what tools youll need. phillips head screwdriver 14mm flare wrench and a 19mm flare wrench and a pair of vise grips (just in case the flare wrench starts slipping). a pair of wire cutters and a couple of zip ties. a small piece of rubber would be nice also.

theres a cover plate you have to remove then unplug the pump. remove the fuel feed line and unscrew the screws holding the pump mounting assembly in the tank.

when you mount the new pump to the mounting bracket put a small piece of rubber between the pump and the back of the bracket. it quiets it down a little and use the zippy tie to hold it in place on the bracket.

any further questions can be answered by the vfaq on it.

for an awd http://www.vfaq.com/mods/pump-WB-1GAWD2-print.html

for a fwd http://www.geocities.com/MotorCity/S.../5051/pump.htm

only way to get to know your car is to put in the time wrenching on it yourself. I dont let anyone work on my car.
