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! -Robert vin 6585 --- In dmcnews@xxxxxxxxxxx, "jtrealty@xxxx " <jtrealty@xxxx> wrote: > The safest way for you to test the pump is to install it in the > car.Don't play around with a bucket of gasoline and certainly don't > put water through it.If the car runs with the pump then the chances > are that it will make a good temporary spare.
