Ask wannadiesel about grinding the foot, from what I know that mod can put some serious fuel through the pump. I think most that have ground the foot are using a mildly shaved stock fuel pin.

Some basic tools like 13mm wrench for the 3 injector pump nuts. Allen wrenchs and a wrench with a wobble socket should work. A dermel or diegrineder will work just as well, have a small hammer on hand. Have a good pair of needlenose pliers for the gov spring and wacth that top hat another set of hands do come in handy. Hey while your in their is good time to replace the oring on the gov shaft to prevent future leaks. I aways put in a new brass sleeve and oring in the pump top. The bosch kit is only $22.00 Good Luck Tboling
