What are the pros and cons of putting anti sway bars in my car,I have an acura Integra is that helps.?

Replacing the pump in the tank is a simple job.I would not put a inline pump on the car.You will be making it unsafe and may cause a fire .I seen this happen and the people lost the whole thing and their Ins. Co. would not pay to fix it because they made it unsafe .Call different shops and take the best price. The pump may not be cheap but it's cheaper than buying a new car.If you have kids I hope this changes your mine with using a inline pump.

ask a round. If you can find an external pump, it must be able to pull the fuel out of the tank, through the one already in there, and at a sufficent pressure to keep the fuel rail fed.

Actually, that is reasonable. - compare it to other vehicles! A newer Sunfire costs $900+ just for the part. An older vehicle is going to require repairs periodically - deal with it. It's cheaper than a new car payment!

How do you change brakes on a farmall B tractor?

i can tell a way to change the pump,and you wont have to drop the tank,if you dont mind doing it.find the location of the sending unit(its probably about under the back seat,or in the trunk).once you find the location,cut a flap in the floor board and bend it away,so you can get into the unit,and change it.after you get it changed,put the flap back over the hole and seal around it.i know a guy did that once,but some might not want to do that.but it works,and whenever you need to change the pump,you dont have to drop the tank.
