'93 945 na (California car) In-tank Pump & Oil Separator 900 1993

I've tried to remove the in-tank pump on this car, and could not get enough clearance through the floorboards to pull it out. Is there some other trick I should try, or do I need to remove the tank? Car also has a leaky front seal and I can feel the air coming out of the oil fill cap when it's running. I've cleaned the flame trap, but the oil separator seems to be located behind some mechanism that's related to the egr valve. On my 240's (non-California) I was able to remove the oil separator without removing the intake. Is this possible on the 945? Thanks for the help.

Here's a post from a few weeks ago with a very good step-by-step on changing the oil trap on an EGR 940...

I'd remove the intake, especially on an EGR vehicle. If you order a new intake gasket, you can do the job really easily and not worry about messing up the old gasket. All you really need is extensions for your ratchet. Believe me it isn't as hard as it looks, as long as you're careful about the cables attached to the intake, and the vaccum lines.
