It helps if the engine is turned so that the fuel pump lever is on the "low" side of the cam. If you loosen the fuel pump and there's lots of pressure trying to "cock" the housing, try rotating the engine (by hand), a bit, putting the pump lever on the low side of the cam.

Make sure the new pump lever matches the old one exactly, and install it carefully, and you shouldn't have any problems.

Put a dab of light lithium grease on the wear area of the lever to lube it for startup.
