  Q: How to remove and install a fuel tank?

  A: The following procedure is much easier to perform if the fuel tank is empty. Drain the fuel into an approved fuel container using a commercially available siphoning kit (NEVER start the siphoning action by mouth), or wait until the fuel tank is nearly empty, if possible. Remove the fuel tank filler cap to relieve fuel tank pressure. Relieve the fuel system pressure. Disconnect the cable from the negative terminal of the battery. Remove both Fuel Pump/Fuel Level Sensor modules. Raise the vehicle and place it securely on jackstands. If there is still fuel in the tank, siphon it out. Remember - NEVER start the siphoning action by mouth! Use a siphoning kit, which can be purchased at most auto parts stores. Remove the rear section of the exhaust system. Remove the driveshaft on AWD models. Remove the rear parking brake cables. On AWD models, remove the entire rear suspension subframe assembly as one unit. Remove the fuel tank shields (The plastic fuel tank shields and the rear portion of the exhaust system must be removed before the fuel tank can be lowered). Connect the fuel filler and vent hoses from the fuel tank. Support the fuel tank with two floor jacks one beneath each lobe of the fuel tank. Position a wood block between the jack heads and the fuel tank to protect the tank. Remove the fuel tank straps. Slowly lower the tank with the jacks and remove the tank from the vehicle. Installation is the reverse of removal. Reconnect the battery and perform the necessary re-learn procedures.
