Glad you made it back to Arizona fine.
The fuel pump issue must have been a PITA. How long did that set you back?

It only took us maybe 1 to 2 hours to change the pump after we went to the nearest auto parts store and bought the fuel pressure tester and then the pump. The weather turned out to be in the low 90's the day we worked on it, so it really wasn't bad at all. His car was actually losing fuel pressure with boost (yikes!) He didn't really lose any time since he had planned to stay for a couple days here; he just didn't leave as early on Wednesday that he had planned. We didn't even work on the car on Tuesday, we just went to the lake for a little cliff jumping, yay! We fixed the car up on Wednesday and he was off to Arizona by 4pm Central time which should have put him home around 10 AM Arizona time on Thursday morning. His car looks really good, and those wheels look way better in person than they do in pics! We had a good time, and I really enjoyed the company!
