I removed the fuel sending unit and was able to get a hook on a piece of metal turned sideways and used a come-along from a rafter in my pole barn, worked great for me.

Someone used a pressure washer to blast the foam out. Thought that was a good idea, if a bit messy.

I remember!! "Lt Dan" used an electric chain saw to remove his tank. I think "John R" wrote a limerick about the ordeal?

tanxs guys like the pipe in the sender hole but think ill use the excavator to lift the tank. far as sawing or blasting there less than 1/4 of an inch between the stringers.hope it just brake loose.

I used an Excavator too, after I cut through the foam w/ a skinny hand saw.



Check out the hole about the size of a quarter on the side where it was "foamed" in........bad idea.
