Hello and welcome to Just answer.com, Super mechanic here. About your vehicle.

The fuel pump is inside the fuel tank. You will have to remove the tank in order to replace it.

CAUTION: Observe all fire hazard precautions detailed inFUEL SYSTEMS / SERVICE PRECAUTIONS , when working on open fuel systems.
Fuel system MUST be depressurized before disconnecting any fueling component.

Jaguar recommends use of a special non-ferrous wrench, tool JD175, for removing fuel hose clamps located inside fuel tank. This is to eliminate the possibility of sparks being created.

REMOVE TANK

  1. Depressurize fuel system. See: Fuel Pressure Release
  2. Disconnect battery.
  3. Drain fuel tank into suitable container.
  4. Lift car on hoist.
