i knew the factory door only accessed the plug. i was wondering if anyone had cut out the floor under the seat instead of dropping the tank. i cut the floor out the other day. now the pump is out and changed and the truck is running again. dropping the tank is not as easy as cutting the floor was. aluminum cut off wheel so no sparks. hope i never need to access that damn thing again, but if i do, there is now an easier way that removing the tank, which, although advertised around as not a big job, really is a pain in the ass for the average dood without a clean dry flat place to work. 10 minutes to cut the floor was probably at least an hour faster, if not longer, than dropping the tank, fixing the pump, and putting the tank back in. i got pics if anyone else wants to save some time when they change their fuel pump. thanks for all the input.
