    Yes, if you need to replace the fuel pump, the tank needs to be lowered.
    That is why you should have the fuel pressure and volume tested properly before you buy a replacement pump.
    Any other symptoms?

    Civic fuel pumps are rarely faulty, you probably need a tune up or check main relay, spark plugs/wires, fuel filter, change the whole distributor or ICM and coil.

    I agree with volvokenny--fuel pumps are rarely the problem. Perform tests, in Sections 1 and 2, below:
