How do you remove gas tank of BMW Z3?

Answer 1

Ooh, you'd better be sure you really want to remove it. To actually remove it from a Z3, the rear suspension unit has to come out(!) so before deciding to remove it, run it to near empty and put the car on ramps or a lift and loosen the straps and look at how much room you have to wiggle it and get where you need to go. The fuel sender has an access hole in the passenger compartment, and the anti-rattle pads, the hoses, the fuel pump, and everything else that normally has to be done to the fuel tank can and should be done with the tank in place or perhaps just hanging a little low on its straps. Honestly, if I had punctured my tank I'd get some marine tank sealer putty and patch it. If it seriously HAS to come out, well, I'm sorry, you can spend the weekend under the car or you can spend it working overtime to pay your mechanic... Fuel tanks rarely fail, so normally there's no need for an easy way of replacing it. In this case they pretty much started with a fuel tank and built a car around it...
