SOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooooooooooooooo

I have my new fuel pump in the little box, new gasket, my long bolt, my flashlight, my tools.... and the gold chain is on the table out by the pool.

I decide before I am going to replace the fuel pump, I will climb under the car and actually get my clothing dirty and see what I can see... I discover screws.. a whole bunch of them on the underside of my fuel pump... so I use my handy dandy screw driver and tighten the screws.. hmmm ... I wonder...

I get Biff, my son, off of the golf cart and tell his girl friend Paris, to wait a few minutes while he does a favor for me... I ask him if he will start my auto... he does... no leaks, no spills, no fuel....

THAT WAS TOO * EASY!!!  What did I do wrong?   :shock:
Would plastic be okay for you today?
