I'm in the process of replacing my rear floor,and I'm gonna add an excess panel to get to my tank. The tank is a mofo to remove. I will post pix tomorrow, after I cut out the rusty floor it took me like 15 min to pull the tank with no problems.

wow ... stock location took me about 20 minutes to remove (and that was half full of fuel) ...

what problems are you having dropping the tank (this is probably the easiest car I've ever had to do that to).

You could remove the rear 6 body bolts and
lift the body up instead, 4" will clear the pump
assembly

The prob was getting at all the lines and plugs. A persons arms can only bend at the joints especially when you are laying on the ground.

If I recall ...

1) pull the line from the fuel filter (easy)
2) unbolt the filler at the top and push it thro the body (easy)
3) lower the tank an inch or so
2) get the 2 hoses for the return line and canister off (tight, but droppin the tank a few inches get's ya some room)
4) pull the filler (+ it's extra hose) outta the connection to the tank (agin that 2" drop helps)

 Did you test it to find out it's toast?

 I just fixed one on a 90 kick I got, thought the pump was dead but when I took it out I gave it some lov'in with a ball peen ( power still hooked up just out of the tank) it fired right up.

Judging from what was in the bottom of the tank the pump just got stuck ???
That was 2 weeks ago and it still runs fine

The other thing to check is the wiring. There's a large junction plug in the harness behind the left tail light that gets corroded, sometimes causing the pump to quit working from lack of power getting to it... The plug becomes especially susceptible to corrosion if there is any holes under the tail light...

one last thing is the computer as well. The fuel pump is a common failure in the computer.
