    Fuel Pump above Fuel Filter?

    Update:

    So I was trying to replace it and I got to the last step and got stuck.



    I took off the fuel filter and brackets and all the hoses except one. There is two screws on the fuel pump which I took off and the two hoses connecting to it. But the hose that connects the the tank (I guess) I can't seem to take off. I could cut a line down in so air would let it come off easier but I am afriad that replacing that hose will be a bitch and a half. Any ideas?



    The hose connector on the top right corner, how can I can it off? And it that hose a bitch to replace?

    I need to know if this part is the pump that goes right above the fuel filter.







    Thanks. :up:

            Pull the sender in the tank, that should release and kind of vacuum or pressure between it and the main pump.
