Sounds like it is broken and needs to be replaced.

Hey PATTERSON,

The fuel pump is spring loaded, just push it down into the tank and it should be okay, here are some diagrams on your car and a guide to give you an idea on how to replace it

Please let us know happens so it will help others.

Best, Ken
