Fuel tank removal?

12-14-2008, 10:38 AM

I need to pull the fuel tank from my cabrio and recall not being able to get the tank out of my '88 325is a few years ago, not sure why ? Is there any trick to this?

I do know to pull the back seat and unhook the fuel pump

This place is like catholic school, 2/3 of the students smoke weed on a daily basis, but the faculty seems to convince the outside world that drugs are just in the other schools, the resident pot dealer thinks he's cool because he has the originality to call anyone he doesn't like a homosexual, and most of the little children follow him like sheep, then there's the few with brains, you hardly ever hear from them, perhaps don't even know they exist, but they get all the sh!t done.

You'll have to drop the exhaust and drive shaft and disconnect all lines & electricals. I always drain the tank first, but if it doesn't have too much fuel in and you have a helper that step can be dispensed with.

The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.
