hahaha i totally know what you mean as i done mine last week but you have to undo the 4 little bolts and take the fuel sender of 1st (just pull it upwards)and then the pump will come out
its bit harder to screw pump back in as the new rubber ring is obviously slightly bigger as its not be fitted
hope that helps
