i just had to...

this will be for a traveling spare for my new Bosch pump, that i spent more on at NAPA than i care to admit. but i needed one and it was there the next day.
hopefully, it'll never be used but i think if it DOES get used, i envision rescuing another stranded Vanagoner on our upcoming 4,000 mile trip to the Far East (Massachucetts) in a couple weeks. i can be a hero, getting someone on their merry way, for a Karma gift of $24 from my mobile parts store.

| I got the Bosch pump at a good price from Rockauto and will keep the old one as a spare. |

I think skills NAPA fuel pump didn't get his customer home from his engine swap. Not much use as a spare if it isn't dependable
