I started swapping the fuel pump in my Talon. Finally got all but one of the nuts off the sending unit. Last one is going to have to be snapped off. Problem is I can't get the hose disconnected from the top or the underside connection. There so rusted I'm pretty sure it'll snap the tube off the sending unit trying to get it off, I've been soaking everything in PB Blaster on and off for 2 weeks. I've read the VFAQ and I'm using flare wrenches.
As a backup plan I started looking for a sending unit (Napa, Advance, Autozone). Apparently you can only get it through a dealer, can't wait to see how much they want for it!!! So, does anybody got any suggestions or an available sending unit they want to sell (1G AWD) I now have to go out and find the tools I threw around the garage, yard etc. -------------------- 92 Eagle Talon TSI AWD "The Black Golfball" How fast can a 14B go???
