What's in my fuel! This doesn't look good!

What happens here

With the motor components cleaned and the magnets re-secured using epoxy, the presenter reassembles the fuel pump in reverse order of disassembly. This involves carefully reinserting the armature and brushes into the motor casing, reattaching the electrical cover, placing the gears and strainer back into the pump housing, and finally securing the front cover plate with its bolts. He ensures all connections are tight and components are correctly aligned. After reassembly, he installs the new Cin-Tek 70224 fuel filter and the Goldenrod 496 pre-filter with a clear bowl onto the pump assembly.

Goal: This step covers the reassembly of the repaired fuel pump and the installation of the new primary and pre-filters.
