Re: I need to know how do i change a fuel pump on a 1994...
- First, you need to make sure you only have a gallon or so left in the tank. Siphon off the gas into an approved container.
- Place the car in jack stands for easier access to the gas tank.
- You will need to remove the fill hose and vent line from the filler neck.
- Place a floor jack under the fuel tank; remove the straps that hold the tank in place. Carefully lower the tank.
- You will need to remove the gas lines and vapor lines going to the tank. You may need a special tool for this. You can purchase at a local auto parts store. The tool is placed on the fuel line then pushed into the connector pushing back the fingers that hold the connector together.
- After disconnecting lines and wires to tank drop tank all the way to the ground.
- If you have the old style, you will need a flat screwdriver and a small hammer to remove the retaining ring that holds the assembly onto the tank. There is three tabs to tap on with the screwdriver and hammer. The new style requires a strap wrench to unscrew the retainer.
- With the retaining ring removed you can remove the assembly from the tank.
- Replace the fuel pump and the fuel strainer.
- Assembly reverse procedure.
