I found and printed out a nicely detailed installation procedure for the Racetronix hotwire kit and since it's plug & play, I was wondering if I can install it before replacing my stock fuel pump with an upgraded Walbro pump? It looks like you only need to loosen one gas tank strap--but not pop the bolt--and the rest will plug right in/bolt right up.
Since you need to drop the gas tank to R & R the pump, a job I'd rather leave for a shop to do, hooking up the hotwire kit myself will save me labor costs. The install doesn't look too difficult. I assume installing the hotwire kit for a very short time to the stock fuel pump is a good thing anyway, and won't harm the stock pump while I drive it to a shop to upgrade it?
