there are a few things I would add to that install.....such as when you unscrew the black cover, disconnect the harness from the fuel pump, and try to crank the car before undoing any fuel lines........also, on # 8. I would like to emphasize what he is saying about not pulling too hard. I pulled too hard, and the wires came out of the harness, so i put them back to what I thought was correct, reinstalled the pump, tried to start the car, and it wouldnt start. so, I had to remove the pump again, and swap the wires.......it was a very big pain in the ass for no reason

yeh, that ones good.. but it's easier once you jump on the fuel install first.
Hardest part is, of course getting the metal seal in, which isn't hard as people make it out to be.
it's a simple math.

Do you recall if the blue wire or the black wire was closer to the release tab? I pulled to hard myself. That could be taken the wrong way

I would just like to add, DO NOT DO THIS WITH A FULL TANK OF GAS, I did (the rocket scientist that I am) and it wasnt pretty, gas everywhere.

Type of oil used to set the pump / gasket
The link refers to using a light oil when setting the fuel pump back into the gasket. What type of light oil are people using? Is there a TSB from Mitsu stating what to use? Thanks -- great link btw

When I did my pump I used just a little (just a touch on the tip of your finger) of mobil synthetic. Of course use new oil not old! I have never had a problem!

Make sure you do this with as little gas as possible.

The first time I bought the Walbro pump, nothing came with! Only the pump itself. This is my second Walbro pump and it cames as a kit.
I didn't use the rubber isolator that came with the kit... I used the stock one... is it bad?
