oh, y'all missed my last little stunt
so after 200k miles & 16yrs, the stock fuel pump on the truck decided it'd had enough... & left me stranded in the ghetto part of town (1/4mi from the closest AutoZone - the store i was leaving). this was right after the sidewalks started rolling up on a weeknight with supper in the oven & everything. that led to an interesting night involving freezing, guns, lost IDs, and a few run-ins with the cops... but that's another story for another time.
fast forward to last week waiting on the new fuel pump to get installed
(just because i ain't got the time, tools, or warmth to do it myself); this is what i got to deal with...
