Walbro fuel pump installation

This thread will go over the process of replacing a stock fuel pump with a new pump from Walbro. I chose to go with the Walbro 190lph but the install should be exactly the same for those who choose the Walbro 255lph high pressure pump as the two pumps are identicle. I hope it's also helpful for those who simply want to replace their fuel pump with a new OE unit or find themselves only needing to replace the in tank fuel filter for that matter.

The Walbro came with very clear directions and I was pleasantly surprised at how straightforward and easy the install was. Tools that were needed: regular philips head screwdriver (preferably w/magnetized head), set of very small wrenches, set of small sockets and ratchet, pliers, wire cutters & wire crimper.

**Warning** This project has the potential to be very dangerous to your car, to yourself and others around you. Be smart and safety minded as you are essentially opening up a large pool of gasoline inside your car. Have an extinguisher ready somewhere, keep sparks and electricity away, work in a well ventilated area, no smoking and all that good stuff. I will not be responsible for anyone that causes a fire or is burned while doing this install.
