My Mazda 6 2007, has hinges for back seat, even easier, just do the bolts on the floor, and it flips up in sections. Cannot find this anywhere.. Also, mine is nothing like this, I have no screws, it's a big plastic ring, that needs unlocking, that is really stuck...so basically, that's the hardest part, and this is nothing like , how my fuel pump is fitted.
i may need to do this soon for the same model and don't have a garage to work in. any advice? should i have a pro do it or is it reasonably easy? if you followed a guide of some kind i'd love a link please if possible
@@inhalediving I ended up cutting a hole out of the sheet metal under my back seat to access it. I don’t have a link Im sorry. Could possibly make a short vid explaining it. You don’t need a garage just a designated space with access to electricity for the cut out. To drop it wasn’t too bad either you would just want the tank as empty as possible.
I'm sorry Lhostel. I've not seen an example of one that the tank needed to be dropped to access the pump. Every one I've worked on has been like the one in the video. I hope you were able to get it fixed.
I did my mechanic stuff out in the elements for years. I agree with Lhostel that you just need a safe place to work. I had a space away from moving vehicles and small children. If you need to jack a vehicle up for any reason, a firm area where your jack or jack stands won't sink into the ground is a good idea. I've also placed boards under my jack or jack stand to spread the load and limit the amount of soil compression.
@@sketchypastshop6688 it’s a California emissions and i think that’s the difference. I cut a hole out with a grinder. I wasn’t dropping that tank again. Got it done.🙏🏽

What about renewing that sealing ring I would have thought it was necessity.??
Do you need to disconnect fuse pump relay? And disconnect the negative battery?
Hi Kota, it is probably safer if you do.
@@sketchypastshop6688 thank you
I'm assuming a 2008 mazda 3 is the same?
Hi Matt, I should think so, but have not changed a fuel pump on that vehicle so I cannot say for certain. Thank you for watching!

Bullshit. Can’t post a pic here but i can prove you have to do the tank on some. On my 07 Mazda 3s 2.3
