To remove

  1. Drain the fuel from the tank.
    IMPORTANT: The tank must never be drained by suction through the filler pipe as this will damage the non-return valve!
  2. Raise the car, making sure that the right-hand lift arm is situated as far to the right as possible so as not to be an obstruction during removal.
