85 SPG fuel pump replacement - what's involved?

My fuel pump has been getting very noisy in the back there especially when the tank is less than half fill. When I go around corners 2 or 3 seconds later the car shudders and looses acceleration for a few seconds. Also noticed hard starts only in the morning getting worse and worse. Yesterday it suddenly all but died. It remained sputtering with no power till I noticed smoke coming from under the car. Had a look and catalytic converter had heated up more than normal and was burning off oil. Shut engine off. Restarted it and was back to running normal. This car has 2 fuel pumps. Which one should I replace first and is it an easy job? Thanks.
