You tube may have vids on this. Also if equipped, lube the rodthat actuated
the pump that will hold it up away from the pump as you install it. If the
engine has no rod, you may rotate it slightly to get a cam (weird shaped
peice) to move back so you can get the pumps "pawl" or level in the hole
for the pump to seat.

1978 Eleganza w/ 403 engine. I am trying to replace the fuel pump. I
looked at the new one and feel but con not see the the top mounting bolt
area.
There is a slot in the mounting area the looks like it was designed to
start the bolt and slide the pump under the head. I tried to reverse that
procedure removing it and was unsuccessful. I ended up removing both bolts
and now I can pull the pump about 1 to 1.5 inches out and then it hits an
AC mounting casting above it. I can not get it to clear the casting.
I know is is a simple job because I watched Al Branscome change a pump on
his in about 30 minutes at Bean Station.
I gave up for the night and cme home. I was 28 degree when I left. When I
came home I looked in the 1977-78 maintenance supplement and all it say
under fuel pump is "Correct as Necessary"
