1990 100 fuel pump removal

There are rubber-like arms in a retainer in the tank that latch onto hooks 
on the pump.  If you feel around the top edge of the pump, you'll feel 
three such items.  You just sort of wiggle them off the arms by pushing 
outward from the pump.  When all three are loose, the pump just lifts out.

Regarding the manual:  JordanVW at aol.com just announced he has a used one 
for that car.
