Mine is different from yours friend, and thanks for the reply, my truck ,it is in two completely different piece's not one,, the ring is off!, I'm looking in the tank, the top part has the fuel connectors,and underneath the top part is hose's and wires that go down to the module ,the fuel pump in the bottom of the tank, it is stuck to the bottom of the tank by some means, if not it would just fly around in the tank, I WISH IT WAS ONE PIECE!!!!, ya, that would be great,,, I don" t know how the bottom portion is held to the bottom of the tank, hence my inability to remove it, a ford mechanic said maybe twist counter clockwise or push the two tall tabs inward and lift, but no success , I don't want to be overly forceful without knowing exactly how and what is holding it to the bottom of the tank, again thanks for the reply,, somebody has had this type of pump out there somewhere,, hopefully they will see this post and save my bacon
