drain the tank as much as you can. Pull back the carpet in the back and remove the inspection plates. Remove the fuel pump assembly. Then pull the clamps off the fuel filler pipe and the vapor return and slide them off. Next, unbolt the metal straps starting with the bolts nearest the front of the car. Then you slide the tank an inch and undo the bolts on the straps towards the rear of the tank. After that, your done. Its pretty easy.
