The reason the fuel pumps last so long is because they are immersed on fuel, keeping them cooler. And we all know pumps push better than they suck, so they're right in the fuel. Now here in the midwest, where it rains rust, I always use a die grinder with an aggressive burr to grind off the bolt heads, or right through the strap. Way less sparks.
