Before removing the fuel tank, pump out the fuel from the tank.
Remove the fuel tank from underneath the vehicle. Use a jack to support the fuel tank.
Even an empty fuel tank contains fuel vapors that are explosive, so use caution.
After installing the fuel tank, start the engine and check the fuel system for leaks.
Fuel pump/fuel level sensor
On models with petrol engines, the fuel pump together with the fuel level sensor are installed in the fuel tank. The fuel level sensor consists of a potentiometer and a float connected to it. When the amount of fuel decreases, the float of the sensor drops and, increasing the resistance of the potentiometer, reduces the voltage on the fuel level indicator located on the instrument cluster.
