What do you use to disconnect the hard lines that were hard to get too?
I assume the tool I used to remove the fuel lines at the fuel rail are the same?
I was wondering, I see 4 lines coming out of fuel assembly, , fuel out, fuel return, vapor to engine, where does the other one go to?
Thanks for your great pictures.

The vapor vent line goes to the charcoal canister, not directly to the engine. The fourth line is for the fuel tank vent (pressure/vacuum relief) valve.

Re: Cutting access hole for fuel pump (convertible)

My 1st attemp to post pictures.
Picture of my tank cut, I cut a little bit more on edge to get to the connectors.
will bend back and put a plate over it.

2nd picture. I added a plug , so I can pull the whole unit out and work on bench.

3rd picture Installed and hooked up. I cut the hard lines and used fuel injector fuel line and make sure to use 4 clamps. I did not and had to add 2.

hope these pictures will help someone else out. I can probably pull the pump assembly in less that 20 mins now.
