Try to have the tank as empty as possible.This will help in the removal process.Relief the fuel pressure by removing the fuel pump fuse or relay and start the car and let it run til it kills. Remove the straps that hold the tank in place and loosen the hose clamps to the filler and breather hoses.Lower the tank enough to unplug the fuel pump connectors and lines,remove the tank.Be very careful around gas or fumes.They are very flammable.Safety always.The amount of money you save is not worth you getting hurt or killed.

If it leaking from the top of the tank, and only when it is full of fuel, it could be the vent valve. Are you sure its not the filler tube ?

I hava a 1992 pontiac grand am . I replaced the fuel tank and the fuel pump. It trys to start but it will not run. It is like it is getting some gas but not enough to start.

Put at least 5 gallons of gas in the tank. Most tank baffles won't let 1 or 2 gallons get to the pump.
Before you do that, go back and make sure everything is hooked up, and no rotten rubber lines at tank and evap connections. If you didn't already, change the fuel filter.

The fuel pump went out in my 2003 pontiac grand am what parts will i need and do i have to drop the tank

Fuel pump and New Seal for sure are needed. Make sure it isn't the relay or a fuse before before you go through this. As far as dropping the tank that will depend on how full that tank is and if you have enough room to work with it mounted. This is usually a pretty easy pull because there is one locking collar and once that is released you can pull that pump.

I drove my 94 pontiac grand prix se 3.1 parked went to take off about 15 min later and car wouldn't start. i had 1/2 tank of gas and after trying to turn the motor over a couple times the battery sounded...

  1. First check the fuel filter if there's a lot of elements inside it then replace it.
  2. Check the alternator as well. Visit a good mechanic.

What's the procedure for changing the fuel filter on a 2001 Pontiac Grand Am SE?

the fuel filter is "inside" the gas tank. make sure to disconnect battery first, and also open gas cap to relieve pressure before you drop the gas tank. good luck

94 Grand Am looses power and abuses fuel. What is

Your fuel filter is probably on the fuel pump or on the fire wall of your engine - Mostly likely off of your fire wall. If it is loosing power have your catalytic convertor checked. Change your fuel pump, this could be your problem. All of these you can change yourself. I don't believe that a '94 Grand AM has an access panel to the fuel pump so you will have to drop the tank - Just make sure that it is below a 1/2 tank before dropping it. Buy a Chilton and it will give you step by step direction. Good luck!
