    Fuel pump inspection

    We purchased some foam blocks for inside the gas tank to reduce sloshing. While installing that, I took a look at our fuel pump given the recent issues others have experienced with the pump output hose coming loose. Here's what I found:

    All is still well as we originally built it. We cut the OEM pump bracket and inserted a piece of steel. We used two self-tapping screws to secure the assembly along with a healthy dab of JB Weld. A stainless hose clamp keeps the pump in place. So far so good!

    Where did you get your fuel blocks from? They are on my list, but there seems to be a lot of variation in price in what I’ve seen
