I have 1997 Chevy blazer, is there an easy way to access the gas sending unit?

Asked by Randy40 Nov 29, 2007 at 10:31 AM about the 1986 Volkswagen Cabriolet

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a bad leak at the connection, The sending unit line appears quite rusty. Could it be loose or is there a way to tighten it without dropping my gas tank? Is there a way to access it from above from inside the vehichle? I saw the leak after lifting the flap in the driverside wheel well and there is very little room to work on it there.
Thank you in advance, Randy

TY very much. I did it once with a jack under it with a friend. But he was the expert so I will take your advice Ty again.

my cabriolet is strange. I runs great most of the time. Once in a while while driving the rpms fall below 10k and the car bogs down. It take about 45 seconds to get to 45 mph from a stop. When this happens I drive home and park the car. Upon the next start up everything is working fine. I have a new fuel filter, plugs air filter,wires, no vaccum leaks. Your thoughts on whast I could check next? Thank you 2 Answers
