Re: Gas Tank Sending Unit
usually there is a locking ring around the edge. I don't see one on yours from that pic though... You would use a hamer and screwdriver to rotate the ring to unlock...

Re: Gas Tank Sending Unit
Is there a tab which needs to be bent down? There looks to be one but before I started banging away I thought I'd ask.

Re: Gas Tank Sending Unit
the tab there needs to be hit with a hammer and a screwdriver as msgross said. it should just turn to the left and will become loose when the tabs line up then the unit will slide out

Re: Gas Tank Sending Unit
It's out, thanks guys.
It was nasty.... and these little buggers are expensive! $100 + at Napa or Advanced Auto parts....
