Am no gueroui on fuel pumps but learned a lot. Replacing the fuel float was not that bad. When you pull a vision a part and find all the tabs for body alignment and how they bolt the parts together it takes my breath away thinking how smart these guys are. In the 8 hours I labored over this project I learned something and things I didn't need to do. So I saved myself $800 bucks for sure. There is a metal locking washer that didn't come with the float. You have to pry it off and that means getting something under this flat washer. Out of the hundreds of tools I have and none of them worked I wound up using a table fork to get under it and pry with a lot of force. Getting the fuel pump inn was scary. It would not sit down in the tank. I didn't know I had to force it down.I used a Ford model A gas tank float. Ask for the flat locking washer when getting the part.
