Take a knife and cut your carpet along the red lines (black line shown for reference distance to plastic guard along door jam) Dont use spark throwing cutting blades because you think it's faster and/or cleaner. Refer to any pump replacement instructional online for the rest. Note: Only the access installation is covered here. installed an access hatch that came in very handy only a few months later (had an unrelated evap tank vent problem that was quickly remedied). I figure I should share my success with how I successfully swapped a pump in just under 1.5 hours. buy a screwdriver & pump, and swap it in in <30mins. (May 15/15 update) Had a fuel pump fail just before driving home from a work trip (~7hr drive from home). and it vents and operates beautifully now Worked like a charm and saved me over $1000 in Ford repairs. I knew it had to do with the evap canister entrapped water TSB so I used my new access panel and just installed a vent hose from the top of my fuel tank to just below the gas cap.
#2008 FORD EXPLORER FUEL PUMP REPLACEMENT CODE#
I then got a code saying something about evap crap. Then it got worse and stopped at half tank. I began having fill problems to my fuel tank. That's why I "went for it" and did the logical thing. I (1) broke a fitting piece on my fuel tank (i left one hose connected and it snapped off when lowering it), (2) spilled a bunch of fuel when I had to remove the fill hose, (3) did the entire job on my back with almost no lighting etc, and (4) stripped a bolt on my transmission support beam trying to lower it to give an inch of extra room to allow the tank to pull out. The first time I did a pump swap on an explorer I dropped the tank. when I finished the job I felt pretty smart - particularly when reminded of how dirty I was after a 7hr fuel pump change in my old 2002 Your vehicle is now equipped with a well hidden access panel!
