No special tools are required, however, it's tricky using screw driver to pry the pump from the frame. I cover the end of the largest, fattest flat screw I had with duct tape to protect the frame. Then I worked at the pump, prying from side to side and top to bottom as slowly and skillfully as I could to get the pump to come out of the frame with minimal marring to said frame.
Once, the pump comes loose it requires a half to a quarter turn(clockwise or counter can't quite remember) and A LOT of patience to get the pump out.
Some Buellers stress about reusing the fuel pump O rings. I reused mine and have had no issues. And I did this similar type repair over 2years ago.
Good luck
