s14: Fuel floater removal

[noodl35]

Anyone know how the hell to remove the fuel floater on a s14. I followed the FSM to "move left horizontally", but I pull so hard that the whole fuel pump bracket comes off of that white plastic piece. I can not for the life of me take that floater off of that metal tab. Anyone have any tips?

I remember doing this when I was swapping gas tanks. Previous owner backed over a boulder and cracked the tank (old lady).

I had the tank out of the car but it's been so long so I can't really remember how I got it out, but I do remember it being a PITA. I want to say it just takes a lot of wiggling and pulling but my memory isn't the best.

good luck!

Thanks, but I got it out. I ended up just taking the whole metal bracket off and saw that the metal tab (holding the floater), had a raised area holding the floater in place. Stuck a flathead in between and just pulled out. God, so easy how it came out afterwards lol.
