[V8] Special tool 3214 - fuel pump removal

[Kneale Brownson]

When I replaced the fuel tank in my 200q20v sedan, the "new" one came 
from an S-car.  I found the baskets in the tank to have differences that 
would not let the pump basket go into the one mounted in the tank.  Pix 
is at http://www.pbase.com/kneale_brownson/image/30210145.  What I did 
was remove the fixtures from both tanks and put the one from the 
original into the replacement.  They mounted the same inside the tank 
with some nuts that held them to studs in the bottom of the tank.
