Lisle 63000 Fuel Tank Lock Ring Tool - Professional Automotive Repair Tool for Secure Fuel Tank Lock Ring Removal & Installation - Perfect for Mechanics & DIY Car Enthusiasts

I do 99% of my own work on all of my vehicles, including replacing a fuel pump when necessary. This wrench is a must-have to work on fuel pump replacement and it will fit on many different type of cars where the fuel pump is located inside the fuel tank. That pump is mounted inside the tank and is covered with a access lid that requires this special tool to get the lid off. Any time you work with a fuel tank, empty of not, extreme care must be taken to avoid a very serious mistake, fire or explosion. Getting the protective lid off is tough and without this special tool, can be very dangerous. I like this tool because its adjustable to fit any make or model so you are not buying some very expensive tools that you may only use once in your life. This wrench adapts to any brand or style of fuel pump lid, making removing it a pretty simple process. Well worth the money I paid, although it was not very much considering how much dealerships charge for a model specific wrench. This wrench works great.Caution: Usually the fuel tank around the location of the fuel pump will have a rubber like coating on it to prevent anything causing a spark. I would suggest not wearing any nylon clothing or shoes that could create a static spark situation. Usually when removing the fuel tank lid, you have removed the rear seat and are in the car directly over the tank. Disconnect the battery also. Once the lid is off, fumes and raw gas are exposed. A simple spark could prove to be catastrophic. Also, it is highly suggested you NOT perform this procedure within your garage. Do so with all doors open and in the open air, this to allow clean air flow and circulation to allow gas fumes to exit the vehicle. And have a Fire Extinguisher close by, or better yet, have someone standing near by with a extinguisher at the ready just in case. Do Not take this procedure lightly, it is probably one of the most potentially dangerous maintenance functions you'll ever perform.
