Update:

A friend and I replaced the fuel pump this morning. It took us just under two hours. I was amazed it took that long, but the triple digits outside I was glad to come in a lot sooner then planned.

It seems to drive fine however the FP relay is still a little warm.

I was able to fix the previously mention "bad relays" (the original relay and the donor relay) following (loosely) the instructions in the FAQ. Thanks to whoever put that in there. So I now have a backup relay just in case something goes wrong.

Here is something interesting though, it seems like the pump we took out of the car is not the original fuel pump to the car. During the removal of the old fuel pump, we found a "pump sock" in the fuel tank. It seemed super old. There were several holes in it. Also, when taking out the trunk carpet, there "just happened" to be a ratchet with the right socket on it to remove the panel in from the trunk. The ratchet is not mine.

Now I am really wondering what I got myself into...

Any thoughts are appreciated. You guys are the best!
