Make sure you atleast get a hand job with that! It's pretty much been 
decided around here that you can drop the tank or cut the hole in the 
floor and replace the pump in about an hour. Of course a battery 
replacement is pretty simple the cables could be be a tad harder. But 
still not worth the 2 hours labor for all of it. Well on second thought 
I'll do it for 300.00 an hour!
