Bump the engine over and it should push itself out . Just be sure to get the tappet out with the pump that sits under it.

I would put a socket and breaker bar on the fan nut and rotate the engine or better yet rotate the engine by hand with the fan pulley until you see the fuel pump rise up. i beleive the fan pulley has to be at the 11 o'clock position. And if it still wont come out after its risen up be very very careful if you pry on it cause that tappet likes to break off

^^^what they said. Be sure to be careful. Some people in the past have broken off the rod in the block. Then its a b!tch to get out.

It was pretty scary when I pulled mine out. With my sh!tty luck I just knew that tappet was gonna fall in the motor, but it didn't. Lol
