The new pump is installed and all is well again.

BUT, I really don't like clipping wires and crimping on new spade terminals when the originals looked so good.

AND, the old fuel line was not quite as long. The new pump is shorter than the OE by a 1/2 inch or so. That makes the fuel line that much shorter. I did manage to make it work, but the clamp is just barely on the top nipple. I didn't have any spare line that fit and the auto parts store is a 6 mile walk - last time I was there, they didn't carry metric lines and all I had at home was 1/4".

But, it works! I doubt that it will ever fall apart. No leaks!

Now to get a spare FP relay and a new fuel filter.
