Where is the fuel pump in a 1995 Isuzu Rodeo?

I just recently changed my fuel filter by myself in about 20 minutes. The filter is located right in front of the gas tank under the driver's side doors. First clamp a vise grip tight enough to pinch the lines on both sides of the filter. Then use a pliers to compress the hose clamps then slide the clamps about 3 inches away from filter. If your replacing the factory filter it will take a little effort to break it loose. Pull the rubber lines off the old filter - gas will leak from the filter. Put in new filter then move the clamps back onto the filter, then remove your vise grips. Start your Rodeo up and let it run for a minute then check for leaks. Do not over tighten the vise grips on the fuel lines cause you may cut the line.

I believe that title goes to Mexican Michelito Lagravere, a 14 year old (2012), who became a professional (Novillero) at age 12. He fought his first animal when he was 4 1/2 years old.

There is no age restriction in Mexico but in Spain you must be 16 years old to fight bulls.

Who are some famous bull riders?

Everyone has their own opinion. There is a great difference between 'Who is the best bullfighter?' and 'Who was the most popular bullfighter?' Sometimes it is the same person, sometimes not. For best bullfighter ever, many people would choose Juan Belmonte or Manolete. For most popular bullfighter El Cordobes might be the choice. He was not a particularly good or artistic fighter but became quite popular a few decades back because of his reckless attitude and daring in the bullring. Belmonte and Manolete have been long dead and El Cordobes has been retired now for a number of years.
