Facet Fuel Pump

[pattypape]

Well, with all this Facet talk, It is time I share my experience in
changing a leaky pump.
It is in the rear, high on the front of the huge fuel tank, tight
space, dark, very dirty and greasy,
Mike H echoed in my head, "don't go under the bus, you could get
Squished like a grape."
I blocked the frame, lowered the jacks for some safety, used heavy
duty jack stands for more security, blocked all wheels.
Two screws, two wires, two copper pipe fittings. This is easy.
Armed with Jeff Miller latex gloves , I changed that leaky old thing.

Lesson learned: the fuel definitely siphons, It slides over those
latex gloves, down your arms through your shirt sleeves, to your
elbows.
Second lesson: with 3/4 fuel, siphoning will also fill the Racor.
Third lesson: Diesel fumes do not make the opposite sex horny.

Thanks for that post,extremely educational and informative,
I can assure you I have experienced that more than once.
I can also recall using those 99 cents per 100 gloves,
They are prone to become glue with contacting petroleum
products.
