[QUOTE="04sleeper, post: 13162721, member: 34911"] Well, I got a little more work done. Took the back seat out and lowered the driver side tank just a little to give me some room to work. Under the seat you will find (2) large rubber grommets. The one on the drivers side is where the pump is located. The grommet just pulls off very easily. Then you will see this. [IMG]http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3778/9000793533_09fc3a50b7_o.jpg[/IMG] Seems a lot of the connectors Ford is using now have a safety latch. This one has the "[COLOR="Red"][B]Red[/B][/COLOR]" one you see here. You just slide it over and push the tab down to remove the connector. [IMG]http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7281/9000793455_28db32fec5_o.jpg[/IMG] The fuel line is secured using these tabs. I used a small screwdriver to remove these. The "[COLOR="RoyalBlue"][B]Blue[/B][/COLOR]" one comes off first followed by the "[COLOR="LemonChiffon"][B]White[/B][/COLOR]" one. Again, the [B][COLOR="RoyalBlue"]Blue[/COLOR][/B] one being the safety clip.
