i had to replace my fuel pump in my 99 tour. The hole under the seat was to small so i had to drop the tank. Worst job ever. Everything was in the way. I finally got it out and fixed it and now i have another problem. When i fill my tank up with gas it leaks out the filler neck hole on the gas tank. I dont understand because i completely wiped the seal and the hole in the tank completely clean. Any ideas?




If you ever need to do the pump again, just cut the sheet metal under the seat. I cut 4 lines (radial) and bent up the metal. Bent it back down when finished and used duct tape to seal it.
