Paula,

You will need a tool called a spark plug wrench. They are available at Sears, most auto part stores etc. You will also need to use some muscle, those buggers can be hard to move...:)

I too suspect that it may be a fuel related problem but let's confirm it. A new main fuel pump is a fairly expensive repair, so I suggest ruling out other more minor fixes first.

If need be, maybe your brother-in law can help you if necessary?

Feel free to fire away with any questions!

Jim
