Unhappy Help-Stuck in middle of project (Fuel Vent Tank Mod)

I'm in the middle of my fuel vent tank modification. Can someone please tell me where the electrical connection is located and where I need to disconnect the fuel lines at. Thanks in advance. I'll wait for a reply. Here is a link to the directions I'm trying to follow.

Drop the tank down some while its still being supported by the band supports. Then that will give you more room to get the connections undone.

I was able to get the fuel tank connections off from the rear wheel well. I don't have the liners in the truck so it was pretty easy for me to get a hand in there.

Talking

Thanks to all who replied. I ended up having to remove my fender flare and wheel well liner to get at everything. I couldn't get the red tag on my electrical connection to budge at all and ended up having to get a craftsman pair of adjustable pliars to force it to move. Then it took me over an hour to get the fuel hoses off. After all that, the project was a piece of cake. More importantly though, I put a piece of 1/4" tubing onto both the front and rear vent. Boy were they dirty! I'll bet dirt has been getting into my tank through them. I ran then both into a T and then fed another piece of tubing up the fuel hose. Anyway, am I glad that project is over!
