Sounds like you might have a chance in small claims court. But you need proof that the fire was somehow related to the work they did. A coincidence isn't good enough, especially on a ten year old vehicle.

I don't believe that the fire was related to the actual replacement of the pump. After all, the pump is in the fuel tank. But is it possible that the fuel pump was good and the engine quit because of the leak? More likely that they took loose a fitting at the engine to check fuel pump pressure and damaged the fuel line or fitting in the process. Can you tell where the leak started? Was it a crack in a fuel line? Or a broken hose?

I think you've got a uphill battle, but if you can prove that they broke something, you have a chance.
