fuel tank replacement

[tselling]

well now that my car is running right, under the hood anyways, i have another problem.... i need to replace my fuel tank because i am spilling fuel all over the ground. it kinda looks like its raining under my car. well my question is how do i do it safely and get it done right? is it easier to do it myself or is that one of the rare times that i should bring it to the shop?

Just torch it off, you'll be fine. (that's a joke, please don't torch it off)

It's not hard to do, but I would take it to a shop if you're uncomfortable with it. I always use a transmission jack to remove fuel tanks (from cars on a lift), or a creeper jack for cars on the ground.

just dont forget to run the car and drain as much fuel as possible first otherwise it makes it a lot harder
