Tech Tip T-TT-0669-21 Subject October 05, 2021 Market USA Fuel Tank Removal Aid Service Category Section Engine/Hybrid System Fuel System Applicability 2016-2022 Tacoma APPLICABLE VEHICLES 2016-2022 Tacoma CONDITION Use the following aids in conjunction with the repair manual when removing the fuel tank from 20162022 model year Tacoma vehicles. RECOMMENDATIONS 1. Fuel Line Disconnect It is recommended to avoid disconnecting the fuel lines as instructed in repair manual step 5. The ideal disconnect location is at the connector directly at the fuel pump assembly. 2. Vent Tube Bracket Bolt Lowering the fuel tank prior to disconnecting the lines greatly eases access to the connections. To lower the tank prior to disconnecting lines and hoses, the filler neck mounting bolt must be removed first to avoid putting excessive tension on the vent hose. This also allows for additional clearance when lowering the tank.

Fuel Tank Cover Removal While performing step 8b for Fuel Tank Removal, the repair manual states to disengage the four claws and remove the cover. While attempting this step it was discovered there is insufficient space to remove the cover unless the fuel tank is slightly lowered approximately 2-3 inches. Additionally, by lowering the fuel tank first, disconnecting of the filler neck and vent tubes is much easier.
