1. get the sending unit (i got mine from a seller on EBAY)... 2. remove fuel cap from vehicle. 3. verify fuel level is 1/8 tank or lower (tank is 25 pounds when empty and a gallon of liquid is 2 pounds...) 4. using a drip pan for leaking fuel, remove 3 fuel lines from front of FUEL TANK. 5. locate 3 metal retaining straps for fuel tank and remove the bolts. 6. allow the tank to lower gently about 2 or 3 inches and looking between tank and vehicle you see a few plugs, remove the wiring. 7. remove the filler neck hose and the overflow hose from the rear of the tank. 8. now take the tank down all the way and slide it out from under the vehicle. 9. slowly unscrew "retaining ring" on top of tank holding fuel pump and sending unit into tank. 10. lift entire unit up being careful not to bend sending unit FLOAT ROD. 11. float rod easily unsnaps, all wiring of sending unit easily unsnaps, and actual unit unsnaps and slides down. 12. installation is reversal order of this procedure.
