Coeengr,

Thanks for that... Could you also say what the DTML pump is? Fuel pump? How hard for a diy-er to replace on his own?

Thanks.

Bill

Check with dealer, some emissions related parts have long 10 year warranty. Some don't!

Thanks Spaceage...yep...doesn't look too hard.

Anyone know if the pump failure will strand me on the side of the road? Or does it just amount to a light on the dash?

Thanks...
