Fuel Pump Replacement....
Any tips? I am tempted to take it to a shop, because I dont want to have to remove the turbo...
Anybody have any tips for me before I take it apart and cannot get it back together without taking the turbo off?
Also anybody have the part numbers for the rubber lines that are in the valley of the engine? While its apart, I am going to replace all of those...
Thanks

Yes... mine is a 97 Cali truck... so tthere is a thing under the turbo that will cause issues from what im told...
FML.... i never can get a break... I have the tools (full shop basically), but I have Two mustangs in there right now, one without an engine or tranny that I need to put in.... The doing the work is not the issue, its more that I dont want to do the work...

OK, I can't help ya in the lack of desire department. From the look of things (Mustangs) you definitely have the skills.
Even with the "Star Ship Galaxia" on top of the fuel pump it can be changed without pulling the turbo, but with the turbo out of the way it does make the job run smoother.
Good Luck

THE TURBO DOES NOT HAVE TO COME OFF! I remembered the key was in the stubby swivel wratchet and the right socket. You can do it! Matt! Matt! Matt!

You can do it, it takes some time,and it is a PITA!! But be patient and save your $$$$ I did mine a couple weeks ago, and the toughest part was getting the banjo fitting back on. Went it from left side front, using left hand, and it threaded pretty easily. But that was after 2 hrs trying with right hand! Good luck!
