    I ended up pulling my tank out to change mine. It wasn't hard at all once the tank was out and that wasn't even bad. Personally I don't see how it could be done without pulling the tank because the cable hooks to the bottom of the valve and is screwed on to it.

    having done a couple times..... pull the pump cartridge, disconnect all the quick-connect valves to the drains (one handed, laying on your belly across the gas tank) pull the valve as far as you can an flip it over, unscrew the retainer and you've got it.

    Putting it back in and reconnecting the quick disconnects 1 handed takes a special kind of witchcraft.
