Any tips on installing a fuel level sensor assembly in a tight space?

I thought this was going to be an easy job... but no! There’s no clearance lol

I tried moving the leveling valve on the cab air bags, and using a bottle jack to lift the cab. But the good spots for me to push up on are not places I have a firm place for the bottle jack.

someone just told me to loosen the fuel tank straps and rotate the tank? Sounds like a good idea except I don’t know how to do that yet.

And of course I have a full tank of diesel like I always do when I go home to help prevent algae growth.

thanks in advance for any tips or methods on loosen the tanks!

 

Sorry y’all I accidentally posted before I finished writing the post. I just edited it. @062 exactlly, the float.

& @AModelCat thats exactly what one of my guys in town said. Only thing is I have about 80g of diesel in there... (??)

 

Ok I see the bolts back here. I’m assuming these need to be loosened a bit to get the tank loose and free?

 

Looks like I got about 4-6 inches of play before the fuel line hits the frame

 

Didn’t think of that! I’ll call and check & I run only one fuel tank ... :/

 

Yeah mine is the j-bracket style I believe. 2000 Volvo.

So you wouldn’t put the M18 Milwaukee on it? Maybe just a regular 1/2 ratchet or breaker?
