Hey Tony,
Glad you finally decided to replace the floorboards. I went through this about a 2 years ago. Here is some great advice, go steal the whole box of Zip Lock bags from the kitchen and label every group of nuts and bolts and small parts that you take off. The lecture from your wife will be worth it compared to digging through boxes and 100 trips to the hardware store for fastners.

: I'm in the process of disconnecting, draining, removing, etc. everything attached to the tub of my 3A in order to replace the floor pans, and never having done this before there's something that troubles me...

: When I disconnect the oil pressure gauge, do I need to be careful of anything in particular? How about when I hook everything back up again. Is there something that I need to be mindful of to ensure that it works properly when it's put back together?

: I know it's a mechanical unit and it's pretty straightforward, but I'm a novice at this sort of thing. Thanks in advance for the advice!
