Is it bad to get gas in a cut?

Changing fuel pump in a 92 camaro 3 1 v6 Whats easier Dropping the tank or cutting a hole above the gas tank How do you know where to cut is there anywhere to get a diagram for cutting the hole?

• Answer:

  well it would be easier to just pull the back seats down and cut a whole through there to get to it but u always have the risk of hittin the gas tank or even the pump itself so to be safe it would be better to just drop the whole tank which is a pain but worth it in the end Cutting a hole would be the last thing you would want to do. The only way to change the fuel pump is to drop the gas tank. Cutting a hole in the your trunk mean you have to weld the hole up. And doing that wouldn't be the smartest thing to do because you would be welding right above the gas tank. Plus if you cut a hole and don't weld it up it will cause rusting and then soon you will be replacing the whole trunk pan. That isn't cheap! Actually, I have this car and its easier if you just cut the whole your self. And you don't have to weld it back on either. Just put the piece you cut off back on and put the carpet back over it. Its as simple as that. Dropping the tank is a pain and pointless when you have access to the pump in the back seat. Trust me, its WAY easier and way less time consuming. And you should cut above the little connector behind your seat. The pump is DIRECTLY above that little connector/ wire. All you need to cut is 6 inches up, and 6 inches across.
