Hi I'm kind of new at working on cars so sorry if this question seems dense, but I'm trying to change the fuel pump on my 280zx and I'm having a problem with the wiring. At the place they connect to the pump itself, the wires seem to be stuk on with molded plastic. Its very hard and I can't seem to cut through it. To anyone else who has changed the fuel pump on at 280zx, how do you get around this?
Melting them off seems like a terribly bad idea; what about cutting the wires themselves? My new fuel pump came with connectors, so I guess I could just connect them to the cut ends of the wires but that seems, well, wasteful.
Any advice?
