haha yes, i do rely on my 18 year old truck for transportation... it runs great though. i'm just throwing in a walbro since there was no record of a fuel pump change in 119k miles. portland does have an awesome transit system that can take me from home to work in 30 min. and i only have to walk <1/4 mile. if my truck ever did break down, i have options and yes biking is one of them. portland is considered the most bike friendly city in the nation.
so i'm guessing that i got the syclone/sonoma sending unit. cause all the pics of the sonoma unit on rockauto look like the one i have. mother f$%^&*ers... anyone need a sending unit for syclone???
i JUST replaced the fuel tank,sending unit, pump, filter, and lines just past the filter..wasn't cheap but man its much better. Get the Dorman part? Was surprised at the difference in prices for the sending unit assembly.
done........... after about 1.5 hours of wrestling the filler neck, vent line, and both fuel lines...
damn fuel lines suck. just about lost it before i took a breather and tried again. the outside fuel line was the shittiest one. got it threaded in then started wrenching it tight and she just stops turning. thought i stripped it. undid it and looked perfect so i threw a dab of anti-seize on it and she still stuck. had to drown the threads with anti-seize and she finally got tight. damn near rounded off the bolt head.
working like a charm now. not that it wasnt before...
