Well I found this nifty picture which kind of helps me on one side, but I still can't find which out/inlet is which on the fuel pump.



Silly me disconnected both fuel hoses for return and send and didn't note which hose went to which line... .. ..

so... looking in the trunk directly at the pump... is the left tube the return or the send...

If all else fails I'll end up just making an educated guess and say the right tube on the fuel pump is for the main fuel line (sender) just for the fact that it is paralell to the diagram shown above.

looking at the FSM, the hose on the left (assuming you're looking at the pump cover from the rear of the car) is the fuel return, and the one on the right is fuel outlet.

I got the bright and basic Idea to start the car and see which hose pours fuel... so I ended up figuring it out that way.

Thanks!!
