The baffle is ok, but I might have messed up the screen when I was cleaning
the tank.  The suction hose was very soft and squishy, but everything else
was fine.  The fuel pump boot is ok, but the cover is ripped.  I would
rather wait and buy the good stuff, but I think the tuna can will not find
its way into my car :)

Can you define 'strap' without using the word 'on'?  ;)  Seriously, I don't
know of any strap that was on mine and the pump looked brand new.  I could
tell someone had been in there before, but it didn't seem recent.  I think
all of the baffle parts are there.  I will have to look again as it has been
many months since I had my hands in the tank.
