Nissan 17202-7S000 Fuel Tank Assembly

Take off the fuel hood to let pressure leave the tank. Relieve the fuel system pressure. Pull the negative battery cable. If you still have a lot of fuel left in your tank, buy a siphon kit at an auto parts shop and use it with an approved gasoline container to remove the fuel. Move the vehicle until its rear is high enough off the ground. Hold it in place with stable jackstands under the appropriate spots. Remove the fuel tank shield if equipped. Uncover the access panel in front of the fuel tank on Armada models, pull off its power connector, and disconnect the fuel lines from the fuel pump/fuel level sensor assembly. Unplug the hose that carries fuel from the pump to the tank, and the hose that lets air in through the EVAP system, both are easy to reach just below and inside the left rear of the vehicle. Put the fuel tank in place, loosen the fasteners that hold the retaining straps, slide off these straps, and gently lower the tank. Tightening the fuel tank strap bolts is just like reversing the removal process.

Get rid of fuel tank pressure by taking off the fuel tank filler cap. Also empty your fuel system pressure. Dismantle the connection from the negative pole in the battery. If your tank still holds lots of fuel, stop by an auto parts store for a siphon kit and use it to transfer remaining fuel into an approved storage container. Lift up the back of your car then securely prop it on jackstands. After that, take off any fuel tank shield that's in place. On Titan models, we first remove fasteners to reach the pump/fuel line protector before disconnecting both the fuel line and electrical connection. Unplug both the fuel tank filler hose and the EVAP breather line at their connection points under the passenger side of the vehicle in front of and close to the left rear wheel well. Make sure the fuel tank stays attached safely, remove and take out the two fuel retaining straps, and then carefully let the fuel tank drop down. Mounting the fuel tank works like taking it out, but make sure to fasten the straps tight on the tank.
