I have just received a FLP from a supplier.
The replacement pump came with rubber hoses and spring clips.
Also the power leads were Red and Black with raw ends.
Is this Normal??
I was expecting the replacement FLP to have 3/4" f/m ends so that I could
use the OEM Steel fuel lines, with 5/8" male ends to screw straight in.
The power wires on the FLP had raw ends, I was expecting a 2 pin plug-
end, that plugs straight into the OEM trucks' plug.
The part number on the box was E3158, and the discription was
Pump Fuel GM Truck 88-97.
I am now guessing that they supplied me with a gasser FLP, as it seems
strange to me, that I would need to cut the OEM Steel Fuel lines to fit the
rubber hoses and spring clips. Also strange to me that I need to cut off the
OEM power plugs to splice the new FLP into the wiring system.
However stand to be corrected by a DP Member who has experience with
a FLP replacement.
Thank you for any info you can offer.
