Fords have two strap, first unplug the electrical connectors, and fuel lines, depresurize the system first, you can do that by the fuel rail by pushing the schraeder valve and releasing the prssure, use a rag to catch the gas, remove the clamp, if it has one on the filler neck remove the two straps, each one has t bolt, then lower the tank with a floor jack. Best to leave about one gallon or so in it if you are removing the pump.
