Hi guys upon removal of the rear seats there is a big black plastic cap my question is does it screw off or pull off as I am trying to get to the petrol float also what is the cap called incase I need to replace it cheers
 
Black bit is just a dust cover that pulls off

To stop the road dirt entering the car

Under that is the fuel pump and tank

The fuel pump held on with a locking ring

Theres a good chance it will be very tight

The fuel pump also contains the filter, pressure regulator and sender unit, all in one unit

Cheers koaler never seen anything like that setup before is the float detachable or is it all one unit I'm not sure whether to proceed anymore I don't want to try getting it out only to find its stuck tight like you suggested thanks my friend
 
It one unit

You can't buy any of parts individually
.
Fairly sure I have dismantled one to clean a filter but that might not have been a panda, can't be 100% sure now
