I tried searching for this issue and found nothing. Im currently trying to replace my fuel pump assembly to fix my non-working fuel gauge after trying two diffrent gauges and it still not working my assumption is the fuel sender.
So as i was saying, im in the middle of trying to remove the fuel pump to put in another one my friend had lieing around to test to see if its the sender. I go to try and remove the fuel line from the pump (return style) and for the life of me i cant get them to budge. I push in the clips on the lines and then use a plyers to pull straight up on them but they just wont give. Im in the clear assumption im doing something wrong so i quickly stop trying to break my fuel lines and clip the clips back in and push back in the fuel line that ive made move just a few millimeters maybe.
So what am i doing wrong, why wont these lines come out. At this point ive tried twice to remove my pump and failed and starting to think i should leave this to a professional. Ive done this before with my 89 mustang 5.0 and that was a piece of cake. This on the other hand is a P.I.T.A.
edit - btw i have a 98.5 contour svt and a 89 mustang.
