Default Need HELP w/ Fuel Pump

Hey guys, im trying to save money by installing a walbro 255 fuel pump i just bought, can anyone help me with installation. I got the installation kit, but I dont know where to begin. I removed my backseat and I found something, but I dont know if the fuel pump is inside of the 2 canisters I found, or if I have to go underneath the car. If you guys kno any links to where it has step by step instructions, I would much appreciated it. Thanks for all your help.

what kind of car is it? most likely the larger one in the middle is the fuel pump and the other is for the sending unit... there will be a circle of 10mm nuts around it and electrical plug and like a 17mm banjo bolt for the fuel line

disconnect that stuff...pull the pump up and out and replace the thing

remove the battery ground first so you dont start a fire

the only reason for this would be to relieve the 40 psi system fuel pressure fromt he feed line so i tdoesnt leak into the car...

if the car sits for a while it shouldnt hold the pressure long...just dont click the key foward and prime the pump right before you do it...also when putting the pump back youll see a little box looking thing in the tank the bottom sock has to sit in...youll know what im talking about when you take it out
