I need a clear answer to my walbro fuel pump question...

I bought a new welbro 255 lph pump for my car like 2 months ago...and just got home from overseas today. The pump ended up dying on me. I went to change it and noticed there is a bucket in the tank and that the new pump doesn't exactly match the old one... the inlet isn't offset like the stocker either. I'm worried about 2 things...how do I install this to make sure the pump doesnt suck air, and what do I do with the other 2 tubes?

I just need to get this thing running tomorrow...pump going bad now is bad timing... I wish it was as easy to install this as it was in my thirdgen...

Look for the step/picture where it shows to cut the two ribs out of the bucket. Do that, and you'll be fine.
