On my 92 the pump was on the top of the tank. I therefore had to remove the gas tank to get to it. Unhook the battery. Then disconnect the hoses you can get to. Place jacks under the tank and let them put pressure on the tank. Then remove the straps holding the tank up. Begin lowering the tank and then unhook any hoses you didn't do earlier. Once on the ground you can slide it out and then replace the pump. Empty the tank prior to installing to make it easier. Just be careful. When doing anything with gas you want to ensure it wont ignite by any flame. it might be helpful to also raise the car if necessary.

Your 2001 Toyota 4 runner will not start even after changing the VSV and fuel pump because of another mechanical problem. Consider taking it to a mechanic.
$359 THATS CHEAP
Yes
Unless there is an acess panel above the fuel pump you will have to remove the fuel tank in order to gain access to the pump.
The fuel pump is in the gas tank. You will need to remove the body to access the tank.
you put cat litter on it
You need to remove the fuel pump and using hand held fuel pump remove all fuel. You can use the fuel pump too, but fuel comes at 50 PSI. It means you should be very careful regardless.
