NOTE:
Clean all fuel pipe and hose connections and surrounding areas before disassembling to avoid possible contamination of the fuel system. Spray the fuel pump module cam-lock ring tang with penetrating oil prior to attempting removal.
- Remove fuel tank. Refer to FUEL TANK .
- Disconnect fuel feed and return lines from filter/pressure regulator.
- Disconnect fuel pump vapor line from fuel tank vent pipe.NOTE: To prevent retainer damage, do not attempt to remove the retainer with a 12 in. or shorter ratchet/breaker bar.
- Use the Fuel Tank Lock Ring Remover SA9156E and remove the fuel pump module retaining ring. A 1/2 in. breaker bar (approximately 18 inches long) will easily loosen and remove the lock ring.
- To prevent bending of the sending unit float arm during removal, lift the pump module up slightly to disengage the orientation tabs in the tank and rotate the module 90° clockwise until the fuel lines are facing the 1 o'clock position (12 o'clock is front of tank).
