The fuel tank in an F53 is large and cumbersome for sure. When empty, it weighs about the same as an empty 55 gallon drum.

(not fun) If you have one, a once over beforehand with a power washer or high pressure hose will make the job a little cleaner.
It is doable in a half day with minimum tools and a helping hand. Make sure the replacement pump works before you reinstall the tank, but, don't run it dry for more than a few seconds.
