2004 GP Fuel Pump Removal Tool

I'm trying to find the name and where to purchase a specialty tool that is made to easily remove the locking collar on the 2004 Grand Prix Fuel Pump Module. I've removed it before with screwdriver/hammer but it was a massive pain and I'm probably working alone on it this time around. Last time it took two people with screwdriver/hammer to create the needed torque to tighten it down. Thanks for any help you can provide!
 


as far as a tool, ive never heard of one, a brass punch and a hammer is how to install it. screw driver can spark when struck.
 
I just vise grip 2 of my flat chisels (hex shank) to my 40" square shank pry bar.
if they are really stubborn I'll have to use my 24 inch pry bar at the tops of the chisels to keep them from rolling over as I break it free.... you'll get the hang of it

The last of the steel retainers was back in 98/99/00. Anything newer is a plastic collar
 
Shouldn't be that hard even when rusty. Screwdriver and hammer but where you hit it is key. If you don't have all the tabs started right it won't go. I push the pump down and twist the lock ring til it stops by hand. Then look at each tab and go around with hammer and screwdriver to get each tab in place and lined up right . Once each tab is lined up tap it in multiple positions to lock it in. If you hit it in the same spot the ring will move out of position and no longer line up with the tabs. Sometimes it helps to hit down and towards the locking tab.
