Success! After much banging with a hammer and a "suitable brass drift" (aka a broken Orbit brass lawn sprinkler) and using the Craftsman 3 leg oil filter wrench, I got the bung nut off!!! That would actually sound kind of dirty, if I could still hear anything. Banging with a hammer in a trunk of a car isn't conducive good hearing.
Anyway.....the surprise is that the pump is an 0580 254 994- According to the original owner, he never replaced the fuel pump....but I was expecting an 0580 254 978. Maybe he had the fuel pump replaced and he forgot. Also, as expected, the rubber hose to the fuel pickup was completely rotten and the pickup was sitting at the bottom of the tank. Do I have to drain all the gas out of the tank to clean it?? Does anyone know the part number of the fuel pickup/splashguard or where I could get one. I saw another post on here where someone made an adapter to connect the wide bore fuel pickup to the small fuel pump opening, but I'm not that ambitious.
