does anyone know how to get the pump out of the things its in. ive never seen a pump held in like this. damn germans

 

what car is it/engine size/age??

 

01 a4 1.8t im puttin in a walbro and cant figure out how to get it out

 

the walbro should replace the pump and the whole plastic housing around it.

 

fuel pump in tank access gained under rear seat or trunk area, there is a plate covering the pump with 3 hex screws remove that and you will see the large screw type plastic ring holding the pump in ( be careful when removing the flow pipes as the are easily broken the pipes are heat shrink type) not a nice job

 

the fuel pipes are going to be the biggest problem you can heat the ends with a hair drier to aid removal, I don't know of the walbro pump but the standard one has to be jiggled out because of the fuel level float which extends into the tank

 

well i just found out how to do it and there is alot more involved then what u r describin
