REMOVAL
1. Drain the fuel into a suitable container by siphoning through the fuel hose at the fuel pump to fuel tube connection.
2. To avoid electrical sparking at the tank, disconnect battery ground cable. Then disconnect the fuel gauge sending unit wires at the fuel tank.
3. On vehicles with dual tanks, disconnect ground wire after draining both tanks. Loosen the clamp and disconnect the hose attached to the fuel tank by pulling along the rubber inner tube from the tank filler neck. On a vehicle equipped with a fuel evaporative emission control system, disconnect the vapor line from the vapor emission control valve.
4. Support the tank, remove the nuts and bolts from the retaining straps, and lower tank to floor. Replace any worn or damaged parts.

INSTALLATION
1. Position retaining straps around fuel tank and attach bolts and nuts. Tighten.
2. Insert the rubber inner hose inside the filler neck and connect the hose to the tank. Tighten the clamps. On a vehicle equipped with a fuel evaporative emission control system, connect the vapor lines to the emission control valve located in the top of the tank.
3. Fill tank with fuel, connect the battery ground cable, and start the engine. Check for leaks.
