Work fast!  Seriously, clamp hose, remove from pump and place new hose on
pump. Cut to length. With clamp in place on new hose quickly remove old and
new one connected quickly. Have a bucket to catch what pours out. I loose
than a quart.

Now I have the hose - next question.

How would one go about replacing that hose with fuel in the tank??

Can't clamp the hose - it has to come off. Figure there must be a procedure
to get this change done and not make a complete firebomb waiting to be lit!

Thanks,

John
