How to disassemble the fuel tank of the Opel Astra

Model: Vauxhall Astra Astra G - Years 1998-2006

Today we will see the instructions that will allow us to disassemble and replace the fuel tank of the Opel Astra. First of all, we climb up to the vehicle and begin to unscrew the fixing screws of the tank brackets; depending on the case, it may be necessary to cut the brackets due to excessive rust. Then we disconnect the tank pipes to remove it, using a jack if possible to keep it lifted; at this point it will be possible to access the fuel pump, useful for any replacement, applying the reverse procedure for the reassembly of the tank.

How to Open the Bonnet on the Lancia Y
