No need to change the fuel pump. As you said, plug the oil intake line and disconnect the oil alarm. Mix your gas in the tank 50:1.

You will need to flush out the straight gasoline from the carbs and fuel lines before starting it. Disconnect a fuel line at the carbs, pump the primer bulb until the fuel chages color.

Or mix you gas in the tank at the correct ratio while it is still hooked up. Run with double oil for a while and then do the disconnect thing. This will make certain that you get no raw unmixed fuel through. You can do this if there is no pump issue to begin with. If you are changing over because of a pump failure then the other way is the way to go.
