In case you guys haven't seen this... it has a few free shop manuals for various makes/manufacturers.

That is so wrong yet appears to be well executed at the same time.
Like professionally good but bad in every way.

How many spares they think they gonna need? This is where some pompous highbrow will explain the fusion of classic lines with modernity is so great and we plebs just are not cultured enough to understand.

Holy ****... I did a fuel pump and module on a 2014 Explorer today. What a chore! Had to remove the damn exhaust, and the driveshaft. There's a pump on the right, then on the left is another type of pump that just feeds the other side. Both of them also have a fuel level arm. It's a really odd setup. Ford obviously didn't think too hard about anyone ever needing to get into this thing. Too bad they didn't put access panels under the rear seats like they did on the Escape's.

Automotive design engineers should be required to work two years with a wrench before they're allowed to pick up a pencil.

Agreed, It is listed as 4.9 hours in AllData. We did it in just under 6 hours. I feel pretty good about that with not having a lift, etc. That fuel pump test thing though.... seems like a racket to add time to the job, LOL.
