yes you have to drop the tank. you will also need a fuel line tool to unhook the fuel lines. before you drop the tank see if tou can reach and wiggle the electrical connection on the top of the tank. these pumps have a pigtail issue. please rate

If the area under the carpet doesn't have an access panel, you can use a dremel moto tool with the small grinding wheel attachment to cut one out. I believe the cut goes inside the middle humps. (You can see humps running down the trunk area.) Do a web search for the exact location. After you do this you will have to put in a metal plate to cover it. What i do is i cut out 3 sides and not the 4th, then i bend it up and over, then bend it back.

Use lots of wd40 on tank strap bolts. If they bigin to bind tighten them up and losen again to get rust out of threads. If you remove the straps, why not remove the fill neck and lower tank? Much easier to work that way!!!

You have to drive your car up on metal ramps. Chock your wheel's, have your pressure relived, remove your negative battery terminal, have your fuel pumped out using drill powered pump or drive your vehicle to the reserve point. Loose your tank straps, and lower the tank. Unplug your electrical connectors and pull your tank out under vehicle so you can remove locking flange on top of the tank to remove fuel pump and sending unit out.Replace fuel level sending unit and reinstall it back.

I have 2006 chevy equinox code po455 I change the fuel cap and the purge evap valve but my code comes back what else could it be?

As you know one of the problems can be the Fuel Cap. I make this suggestion. If you changed your Fuel Cap before the Purge Valve double check that the cap used was an OEM (Original) Chevy Part for that specific vehicle, not just any cap from another Chevy.

My 06 chevy equinox sometimes has touble starting. After a few cranks a little push on the gas pedal it turns on. What might be the problem?

In most cases this is causes by a failed pressure check valve in the fuel pump, this allows the fuel in the lines to drain back to the fuel tank where the pump is located and this causes the hard start.

Where is fuel filter located

Hello Neal.

The Equinox does not have a scheduled replacement fuel filter.
There is a filter inside the fuel tank before the fuel pump (pump inside the tank too) which is designed to last the vehicles lifetime.
It doesn't always work out that way as some folks end up with a bad tank of fuel from time to time.

If you are having fuel flow issues you may have to remove the fuel tank to service the fuel system.
Thank you for using FixYa.

Where is the fuel filter located on my 2006 chevrolet equinox?

For 2006 Equinox 2WD 3.4L SFI OHV
http://www.autozone.com/autozone/repairinfo/repairguide/repairGuideContent.jsp?pageId=0996b43f8075dedf

For 2006 Equinox AWD 3.4L SFI OHV:
http://www.autozone.com/autozone/repairinfo/repairguide/repairGuideContent.jsp?pageId=0996b43f8075dedf

Its the same for both types of Equinox.
The short story: the fuel filter is an integral part of the fuel pump, and 06 Equinox has 2 fuel pumps (each presumably with its own filter), due to the odd shape of its fuel tank.
Note: the last time I thought I had a car whose owner thought it was a fuel pump/fuel strainer/fuel filter promplem turned out to have a bad spark plug wire - it caused identical symptoms (engine missing alot, especially going uphill).
