Fuel Pump

Does anyone know how to remove the fuel pump from tank of 1992 Caravan SE?

if there is alot of gas in the tank cyphon it out with a hose. First there are two metal straps holding the tank in place. Use a ratchet and socket to remove one of the straps. Loosen the second strap, leaving enough tension to hold the tank up. Reach above the tank and unhook the wire connections. After unhooking them you can now remove the second strap. The tank should be ready to remove. Now you are looking at the top of the tank. Twist the fuel pump assembly and it should be able to remove. Be sure to take the gasket off as well and replace with a new one. This will help from condensation getting in. There is your fuel pump. I may have left out a couple steps but the overall directions are there. If your at all mechanically inclined then the smaller details should be common sense items. If not inclined write back with problems you may be experiencing and I can help you out. Have Fun!!
