'Rainman Ray' replace's a '01 SC1 Fuel pump

Knucklehead calls it a SL1 but it's clearly a SC1. Kinda nice seeing a fuel pump job from a "professional" viewpoint rather than our normal DIY methods.

You can kinda see why the job sucks so much without a lift, you have to drop the straps so far down to either get them out of the way or removed from the car to get the tank out.

I never hesitate to push my SC2 the last few feet to the hoist.
Drama queen mechanic made a big deal of it and tried to overheat the starter.
I would take my car away from that man.
I am still on my original fuel pump (and, I just tempted fate

)

I actually like the guy. He may have done some mistakes in naming the car, but he did not tell a full warehouse of lies and crap like some others did.

It seemed complicated and different, then i remembered i have a first gen
