I was starting to think it was necessary to pull the engine to get to that one screw. Any help or ideas are much appreciated!
What I did was remove the top screw (easy), and then rotate the fuel pump back and forth after spraying kroil on the bottom screw. It eventually gave up the battle, and I could get it out even with the phillips screwdriver on a slight angle. That's why I used socket head screws for replacement.
