No need to remove fuel tank, only you need to lift the back seat and you can find the pump assembly

TYhe fuel pump is located inside the fuel tank, the fuel tank must be removed from the car to replace the pump.

    Instructions



    Things You'll Need:



        Jack

        Safety stands

        Wrench

        Socket wrench

        Pliers

        Screwdriver




        Jack up the car and support it with safety stands. Be sure the car is high enough to get the tank out from underneath the car. You could use a car lift instead. If you use a lift, you will need an automatic transmission jack or a second person to help you lower the tank to the ground.



        Unclamp and remove the filler and vent hoses from the gas tank. Most are held on with aero type hose clamps. Unplug any wiring to the fuel pump and sensors. Using wrenches or pliers, remove the fuel lines at the pump. You might need to lower the tank one to two feet to remove the lines and wires.



        Support the gas tank with the jack. Use socket wrenches to unbolt the gas tank straps. Remove or reposition the straps out of the way of the tank. Lower the tank some and check to make sure all lines, hoses and wires have been removed. Continue lowering the tank and place it on the ground.



        Clean the tank area around the fuel pump assembly of all dirt and debris. Release the pump assembly retainer. This may held to the tank with a clamp, a slip ring or screw nuts. Remove the pump assembly from the tank. Drain any liquid fuel from the assembly and place on a work bench.



        Remove the pump from the assembly and discard or replace the entire assembly. Some pumps can only be replaced as a unit. If you can replace just the pump be sure to install the new sock filter that comes with the pump.



        Return the repaired pump assembly to the tank. Use new gaskets or O-rings if supplied. Secure it into the tank with the retainer.



        Place the gas tank back onto the jack and raise it to the car. Reinstall the fuel lines, hoses and wiring. Continue raising into its cavity on the body. Secure the tank with the gas tank straps and tighten with a socket wrench.



        Reinstall the filler and vent hoses. Tighten the clamps. It is a good idea to also replace the fuel filter at this time. Lower the car to the ground. Test for leaks and repair any found.

Po463 po183 nissan versa
code p 0183 refers to fuel temperature sensor A --high input===causes --wiring short to positive ---fuel temp sensor--ECM
code p 0463 refers to fuel tank level sensor --high input===causes --wiring short to positive fuel tan level sensor ---ECM
if the temp sender and the fuel level sensor ( both located in the same fitting in the tank)are in the same wiring harness then there may be a connection as the wiring short to positive is common
check for the harness rubbed through somewhere causing the problem or an after market screw screwed into the harness some where

Trying to find out how to check fuel relay in 2007 nissan versa
Had this problem last summer: car wouldn't start, though turned over, so I bought new battery. The problem turned out to be the fuel pressure regulator, which sits atop the fuel pump beneath your back seat. For a full (if bloody and funny) repair documentary, see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0FaJlkQlkTg.

Nissan versa gas treatment
I agree with Gary, it's not likely the regulator. More than likely it is the check valve in the fuel pump that doesn't hold the pressure after the car is shut off. Adding a treatment won't do anything but drain your wallet.
