The fumes from the fuel tank could ignite and cause a fire.

Place a floor jack under the tank and position a block of wood between the jack pad and the tank. Raise the jack until it's supporting the tank. Then, remove the bolts that retain the fuel tank mounting straps. The straps are hinged at the other end, so you can swing them out of the way.

It is important to avoid placing the fuel tank in areas with sparks or open flames.

Lower the tank far enough to unplug any vapor lines or wire harness brackets that may be difficult to reach when the fuel tank is in the vehicle. Slowly lower the jack while steadying the tank. Remove the tank from the vehicle. If you're replacing the tank, or having it cleaned or repaired, install the fuel pump or sending unit. Installation is the reverse of removal. Clean engine oil can be used as an assembly aid when pushing the fuel filler neck back into the tank. Make sure the fuel tank heat shields are assembled correctly onto the fuel tank before reinstalling the tank in the vehicle. Carefully angle the fuel tank filler neck into the filler pipe assembly and lift the tank into place.
