  13. the fuel pump isnt too bad if you can instaal it yourself. A mechanical pump, which that may be, is held on by two bolts to the side of the motor. most older cars with the carb had them,Just disconnect the fuel lines, undo the bolts, remove the old pump, instaal the new one bolt it up then reconnect the fuel lines. Done. Electric pumps, on the other hand require you to drop the fuel tank, remove thold pump, install new pump reinstall tank. Empty the tank by siphoning out as much gas as possible. so much easier to work with. I would reccommend that you change the fuel filter at the same time. G

  17. Got my first computer in 1980, timex sinclair zx81 with 8k of ram, used the tv as amonitor. Pretty much self taught by the Oh Shit method also. Went through a couple of commodore 64's, bought an old 8086 from someone in 1993. kept that for 18 months and have built all of my own since then. No certifications here. Helped a friend build systems for sale through his business for about 2 years in the late 90's, part time job. Didn't have tech tv available until 6 months before the g4 fiasco. only do repairs for friends or my kids' friends
