It works, but here are some tips

There are no instructions in the kit but there are many videos available. Works great, but there are a few things to note: The locking ring should pop out and be put back in place. Try spraying with wd40 and using a special removal tool with a very large crowbar. It's easy to think you're done, but if the locking ring doesn't click, you'll get a smoke leak code in a few days or weeks. Take your time to make sure the floats don't get stuck. I had a lot of wobble on the driver's side on my '07 Santa Fe and on the first try the float got stuck under the line. The fuel line clamps might be a bit brittle. Take a picture and go to the store to find the right size clips. The auto parts store isn't sure. I used a zip tie out of frustration but will use the correct clip when I pull it out again. The float heads appear to rotate but eventually align. At first I didn't see a full tank, but after driving a bit the gauge correctly showed the maximum. - Drive about 100 miles since last refueling so you don't drive with a full tank. Good luck and be patient, it's a lot better than spending over $500 on repairs.
