[QUOTE="bobbie-g, post: 93152, member: 26"] Fishfreak, I've done this myself, not too hard. mmslic has it right as I remember. Right rear tire comes off, small inspection plate comes off, pop up the cab and put light so you can see what you're doing. There are two right angle fittings that come out of the tank. Again, mmslic is right about finding the primer bulb under engine just inside rear door. Tug on that line to see which tank fitting is the correct one. The other is the return line from the injector surplus fuel ports. I always buy a new grommet (fits into tank) before I start the process. Same for a new pickup tube. I just clean the filter (on the end of the pickup tube) with carb cleaner and reinstall. There are also some tiny clips you can put on the line where it connects to the filter and to the right-angle fitting, but the pickup tube is snug enough you probably don't need them. And while yer at it, just replace the fuel line from the right angle fitting out to the primer bulb. Easy to do at this point, and you don't want it to crack from old age, then leak diesel out or air in. :-) ---Bobbie G [/QUOTE]
