I messed up

You might have to straighten it out by putting pressure on the side where the bolts came undone, threading in the bolts, then loosening the bolt that is in place. It should come out if it's straight. Inspect everything and make sure nothing is damaged, including the cam follower. The cam follower is a little bucket that sits on top of the piston. That contraption looks like this: (Intake Cam Lobes)▷[===(Fuel Pump Piston) When you pull the piston out, stick your finger in the hole and grab onto one of the inner walls of the cam follower bucket and pull it out to inspect it. It's normal for the sides to be a little bit worn, so don't worry about scuffs unless they're big enough that you can feel them with your fingernail. As long as everything looks fine, replace your fuel pump piston and put everything back together.

Thank you for all your help man, i am going to take it apart on Sunday hopefully.
