Fuel pump assembly

[mimzr1]

Howdy! Is there a magic trick for pulling the fuel pump assembly out without bending or breaking something?

It's mainly a trial & error, lifting, turning & leaning the assy until it comes out. Primarily be concerned with the float & float arm to not bend it. The snags are mostly due to the plastic hose clamps & the big "latching mechanism on them. I replaced mine with small, worm-screw clamps, placing the screw more towards the interior of the assy to prevent hanging up going back in. Went in a lot easier than coming out.
