Beagler Posted December 26, 2021 Share Posted December 26, 2021 I wish to remove so Dent man can get at rear panel and I can paint the tank. How do connections and fuel pipe need to be released. I assume it comes already installed in kit so manual doesnt seem to cover its removal or am I mistaken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SM25T Posted December 27, 2021 Share Posted December 27, 2021 Have to watch for some sort of release button on the plastic fuel pipe connection. Then the big ring that holds the pump unscrews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beagler Posted December 27, 2021 Author Share Posted December 27, 2021 Just need to remove tank not pump. Dentman needs access to inner face back panel. Lower half oxidised might as well paint with etching primer and silver paint.Its how the connectors disconnect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Jonathan Kay Posted December 27, 2021 Member Share Posted December 27, 2021 If you get stuck on the connectors please post a photo.Jonathan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beagler Posted December 27, 2021 Author Share Posted December 27, 2021 The plug is easy its the elbow type connector to the big access ring.1st photo. Dont want to damage it.The filler tubes have jubilee clips and I can remove filler in back panel but there is a tube left side that goes to the tank holding bar and comes from filler neck.. Maybe a breather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrightpayne Posted December 27, 2021 Share Posted December 27, 2021 Its a ford OEM pump, what does google say about disconnecting? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beagler Posted December 27, 2021 Author Share Posted December 27, 2021 Lots of different removal tools and connectors on google. May have to release tank and just raise in situ for access and just disconnect filler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
