usually when people hack a huge friggen hole in the trunk to change the fule pump, they cut all 4 lines to get the sender out, then splice them back together. From your pics it looks like the cut the tubing inside the tank to get the pump out and spliced it back together with a piece of rubber and those hose clamps you see there. Those are NOT rated for that kind of pressure, and really should be fixed properly

You need to cut the lines to get it apart, or drop the tank.

this is the "right" way to do it


this is the more wrong way
