On the gas tank straps you can loosen the nuts up some and remove the straps from the top.

MARK THEM! and disconnect the wires. there should be 2 plugs near by to undo.. the biggest pita is the damn filler tube and vent line hose... they are hard to get off and harder to get on. just undo the hose clamps with a flat head and pull with all your might haha not too hard. just irritating. and fyi use a motorcycle jack to lower the tank. its a dream haha otherwise have a jack and stands ready to go.

so just do the bolts first the try to get the filler tube off i just cant seem to get my hand in there

to get those hoses off

You should hear the pump as soon as you turn the key on. On the fuel rail there is a place to attach a fuel presure guage to test pressure.
