usually that fuel pump can be replaced from underneath using the large hole in the chassis. without draining or pulling the tank...
if draining the tank... usually done from pulling a hose underneath... through the same 6 inch hole and into a pan or can... pumping... sounds like a lot of extra work suppose it could be done though... if thats your need. its just not the direct method |
