The fuel pump is located under the right rear passenger seat.

- lift rear seat and fold forward
- remove 3 Philips screws from access platea and remove plate
- remove harness plug from pump/sender cover (press clip and pull)
- remove fuel lines (press clips in and pull)
- remove large collar ring
- note alignment marks, two arrows pointing at each other
- lift up on sender cover and pull out pump (careful with float arm)

Install in reverse... if tank is full, syphone fuel through return line (fitting with arrow in)
