Re: Testing Used Fuel Pump



Not to make this a "me too" posting, but take this warning seriously! 
A while back I when I replaced the pick up line I my gas tank I got 
lazy & decided not to drain the ¾ full gas tank. I tried to use
latex 
gloves, but the that blue 92 octane gas basicly ate them slowly. By 
that time it was too late to turn back, so I finished the job wearing 
no gloves at all. Long story short: The headache from the fuel vapors 
didn't go away untill the next afternoon, and my hands were painfully 
dry & cracked for a little over a week (burning almost the entire 
time). Who knows what else could have happened to me, but don't make 
the same mistake!
