Default Fuel tank locking ring removal tool

Hi all,

I need to get into the fuel tank on my 2002 V70 so need the special round tool to remove the locking ring. Does anyone have one they no longer use I could buy?

Thanks.

Hi, I've got one boxed in the garage, used it twice to fix the pump in my 2004 D5. I'm guessing it's what you are after? its a fairly big thing that undoes the lock ring on the top of the tank under the rear drivers side seat.

Hi,

I managed to remove the pump locking rings by using a pair of big screwdrivers, crossed over and braced against each other. It worked really well.

I do need to take the pump out again soon though as it appears to have failing. Are you selling your tank ring tool?
