Installing a New Fuel Tank

The next step in replacing your fuel tank is removing the fuel lines that connect to the tank. Gas tanks have more than one line. There is a fuel supply line that leaves the tank at the lowest point and goes toward the fuel pump or engine. Then there's the large fill tube coming from your gas fill entry point (where you fill 'er up). There will also be a vent line to allow pressure to be released when the tank's level changes.

Disconnect all of the lines going to the fuel tank. It's a good idea to take a digital camera and shoot the setup before you take it apart. This will help you put it back together if it gets confusing.
