Ive found out in life weither it woudl take you 20 minutes to do something or 20 hours, the outcome look and performance wise is worth the 20 hours anyday. if you are goign to put and access door ( which would be nice to have incase this happens again) you should work with the tank partially dropped so you can put a hing on it and stuff.
As alex said before..those wire nuts were changed today. and what else is ghetto rigged? There is nothing on my car ghetto rigged. Also, why would I put a hinged door on there? The best way is to use machine screws with some type of weather stripping; all it's doing is keeping out dirt and any possible water that is highly unlikely of getting to there.

Justin, we pulled the pump assembly out and the pump was disconnected from the main line.
