Pump relocation.

Pump relocation.
My lift pump was only putting out 3 psi at idle so I parked the truck and ordered a new pump (stock) and relocation kit from Geno's. I'm home now and the first line of the instructions warns to have the tank at less than 1/4. Mine's full and I was hoping someone can let me know if they have done similar job and if I have to drain the tank or if I'll be O.K. Thanks in advance for the help.

RE: Pump relocation.
Don't you totally disconnect the line from on top of the fuel tank when doing the big line kit? That's what I had to do when installing my FASS.
Draining it is gonna be a PITA. More than likely you won't be able to syphon it. I think there's some sort ofball in there or something to prevent that. Not sure on that one though.
Good luck, and as always TAKE PICS !! [sm=Flahssssss.gif]

RE: Pump relocation.
just go to the auto parts store they probly have a plier set that pinches off hoses, i have some and theyre from snapon so they ALOT of money haha but you can always buy a cheapo for the jojb at home. pretty much a vise grip with a rounded edge on it so u dont cut the line, or if u really wanna be cheap wrap ur jaws on a vise grip with electrical tape, should hold very well and not puncture ur line. and another pointer DONT TRY AND USE A TORCH OR CUT OFF SAW TO CUT YOUR LINE!...hahaha im sure somsone out there has and will try it sometime

The hard line on the frame rail dissapears over the tank to no pinching. I wimped out andjust replaced the pump at the motor. I'll move it when the tank is lower. Got my 13 psi back. I figure I can blow air through the lines toward the tank and that should prevent any siphoning. I have a close quarters tubing cutter that I can use. Thanks for all the input.
