Default Fuel pump renewal

I am trying to replace my fuel pump but although I've got the fuel pump assembly loose I am unable to remove it from the tank. Something is stopping it from coming out and I can't tell which way to turn it to remove it. Help!

Default Check the bentley- there are tube(s) inside the tank that need to be loosened.....

The fuel pump is a two-stage affair. One stage pumps high pressure gas to the fuel injection system, the second pumps low pressure fuel from one side of the gas tank to the other. It is the line that goes to the other side of the tank that needs to be removed (I thnik- I've not needed to perform this repair yet myself).
