Take off the inspection panel on the boot floor and remove the fuel level sender ring on top of the tank after disconnecting the wiring and pipes. Pull the sender out and the lift pump is attached to the bottom. The main system pump is under the car. You disconnect the fuel pressure line and remove three (probably very rusty) screws that hold the pump in. In all of this, you are working with raw fuel so be very careful. When you remove the main system pump, about half a gallon of fuel is stored inside the reservoir. If you pull the main pump first, the tank may drain down through siphon effect so clamp both hoses off that go to the tank sender.
