Front Fuel Pump check valve removal

[allie1]

Anyone have any tricks on removing the check valve from the front fuel pump?
Its a pretty tight fit squeezing a wrench on the check valve. The positive and negative electrical nubs on the fuel pump get in the way.
I grinded a wrench down to fit but the 19mm end cap is so tight on the check valve its wont budge.

I would recommend removing the pump with the check valve attached. Then remove check valve from pump.

i was about to do that but I grinded a wrench down even more to make it fit and needed another person to help me break the 19mm nut. A little bit of a pain when nuts are frozen. thanka
