[V8] Fuel pump removal questions, Strainer removal?

[NIck Miller]

Hey, Just curious how to get the fuel pump out of the fuel tank?  I've got
the Float/reostat/stuff out right now to fix the fuel gauge and want to get
the fuel pump out to clean the strainer.   Not sure if it just pulls out ,
or I think there is a ring there that needs to be moved?  Not sure.

Anyway, Also pulled up an article stating I should removed the strainer?
That sounds a bit drastic, but it states that this won't hurt the pump and
will keep it from straining to pump.
