Replied by Owl on topic Fuel Pump Removal G13BB Jimny 1999 JLX
Just read the fuel pump guide,  with regards to fuel pump installation,  a new gasket required plus they say a new cover plate.  Is it a must do,  to replace that cover?  I havent removed it as yet,   assuming its thin steel plate moulded cover?  Ive done a couple of other makes of cars and recognise there was a metal plate cover but it wasnt necessary to replace those?  

Just wondering what others have done in this situation,  replace fuel pump cover or reuse the existing one?  Because the access is pathetic, probably a bit of insurance to replace the cover as well!?  Owl

I would advise leave the filler/breather hoses in place and remove tank end
If you try to remove the 10mm head bolts from behind the filler flap 
these will snap off
