Plot thickens. help!!!

I'm putting in new brake line. And I notice the engine oil pan is leaking.
And I also have to put a new fuel pump.

My questions are:
- Can I change oil pan if I just take out motor mount bolts and jack motor up. Or ?

- Do I need to drop the whole fuel tank to change fuel pump. ?

You have to drop the subframe...

for the fuel pump you can just lower the pass side of the tank enough to swap it

Exactly. I just jacked up the passenger side rear and disconnected the passenger strap. I has some pump issues when I had my Mark and got pretty good at doing this very quickly.

ThAnks guys. That helps me out a lot. Great info. I had plan to drop the whole tank.
I found a fuel pump on eBay for $30. that's better then the ones they sell at the auto part store.

And its gonna take a day for me to drop the k member and change oil pan isn't it. ?

Just make sure the tank has as little fuel in it as possible.
