the fuel pump for the 2001 Rio is located in the tank, you have to drop the fuel tank to remove the pump, make sure that all connecting electrical and fuel, lines are disconnected before you completely remove the tank from the frame of the vehicle. there are steel straps that hold the tank in place and can be loosened with a socket wrench.. Follow these steps.
- disconnect the battery cables as electricity powers the pump so you do not want sparks and gas to mix very bad!!!
- slowly remove tank straps as tank begins to lower, you will see the pump assembly with hoses and electrical wiring disconnect be careful not to pull or push too hard as you can snap connections off.
- once tank is on ground you can tap the fuel Assembly lock off in a counter clock wise motion... the lock is a giant washer which is made of steel and keeps the pump from falling in the tank... use a flat screwdriver and hammer to tap the lock off.. do not hit too hard soft, continuous taps.
- once the fuel assembly is free you can do what u like ...
- reverse the process to install the pump
