I understand what a pain in the *** they can be. I put in my new fuel pump and a week later for some reason it went out again. I had to do it both times by myself. If there wouldnt be any opening it would be nice. You would have to have enough room to unplug the wires though. I found the easiest way to do it by yourself is to use a car jack, put a such as a 2*8 or 2*10 longways on the jack and place it snug against the tank. Then when you have the bolts out of the tank. Drop it down easy. Then once you have replaced the pump. Jack it right back up.
