Default Re: SF18 factory 47 gallon fuel tank filling problem

Spent the last 5 hours getting to the top of the tank.The fuel fill is in the rear with the sender and pickup and the vent is forward.It would seem that the fill hose was in very bad shape.it took 20 minutes delicately sniping the wire and hose from the fill neck at the tank then I hit wall.I cannot get the large filler line to pull out from the hull between the tank well and the forward gas service.I tried everything.....even pulling the filler line out to give it more room.can there be a hose retainer holding it??I can tell that the filler hose was wasted....definatly kinked at the bend to the tanks filler and below deck forward of the tank well its pulling apart as I try to pull it out.I am geting some good pics. but am worried that I am in trouble.I dont want to have to drill a access hole to see whats up,will have to try again tomorrow.
g'nite
