a short tip on the 90 degree connectors on top of the fuel pump.... get a pair of visegrips, open them so that you are just barely able to grip the 90 degree connector you broke before, point the visegrips (VG) down to the top of the fuelpump (FP) like you were using a screwdriver... reach over the 90 degree and clamp softly on the connector between the 90 and the fuelpump itself, do it inlike as though you had a screw driver in your hand and the screw was in the middle of the 90 degree and was threading into the pump. gently pull away from the pump (the only force should be on the pipe below the 90 degree...) and twist about 10 degree left and then right and then repeat as you pull away from the pump. should come out without issue. you can *install* the reverse, just stay away from that 90 degree bend in the fuel connector and you should be find. BTW, you can use a heat gun (outside in the open air with the tank opening covered covered covered, use foil and plastic wrap for one of the three layers.) to heat the black plastic line - JUST a BIT - to soften it and then shove onto the barbed connector. Go slow, underdo it rather than overdo... you can redo an underdo if you follow my meaning. I am going to have to do a photo series on both of these and post.
