Where is there a flexible line? I like that idea, and it's something I should be able to easily do myself.

Look under where the fuel filter is mounted....should have hard lines coming off of it. Just trace them until you get to a flexible line and clamp it off only after the pump has shut off.

Edit: Ummm it might not work for you if you have the hard plastic flex lines.....for some reason on our shop truck 2001 s10 it has a soft rubber fuel injection hose on it.

Just diagnosed as fuel pump. First shop (near work) can fix it today and will allow me 2-3 weeks to pay since we do a lot of business with them for work. It'll cost me $730 for the pump and filter.

Sometimes I really hate this friggin thing...

She didn't say, I just got a voicemail. Waiting on my friend to give me their price so I can compare. I know her shop only uses OEM style parts, so it'd be the Delco or whatever. This shop, I dunno.

Just verified, it's a Delphi pump they'll be putting in.
