Fuel pump location on 2001 jeep tj?

Answer 1

I have a 2005 tj . i done a engine swap to a Chevy v8, with a mechanical fuel pump. I had to disconnect the electric pump that is located inside the fuel tank . You can remove the tank straps on either side of the fuel tank to lower it enough to get access . But it is still not very light empty, so i would hold it up with jack stands . On the top of the fuel tank is a locking ring . You can remove this with a punch and a shop hammer. Becareful there is an o-ring under the locking ring. Try not to cut or lose this o-ring you will need it to seal the tank back off.
