How to Remove a Fuel Pump Cover
You will need to remove the fuel pump cover if you are cleaning the fuel pump, the fuel pump filter or the fuel tank strainer on your vehicle. These parts are cleaned when you are troubleshooting a vehicle that is experiencing inadequate fuel pressure or a fuel leak. Not all vehicles have a fuel pump cover, but if yours does, removing the cover is a fairly straightforward job requiring a few basic tools.
Instructions
- 1
Disconnect the negative (black) cable from the battery.
2Raise the vehicle with a car jack to allow you easy access underneath.
3Locate the fuel pump cover on the bottom side of fuel tank, under the vehicle.
4Remove the bolt from the strap holding down the fuel cover, using a 13 mm wrench. The bolt is usually located near the wheel well.
5Pull the fuel cover from the fuel tank. It will come off easily once the strap is removed.
