REMOVING A 2-SEATER FUEL TANK
By Lorne Goldman on eMog

1. I empty the tank..either out the bottom if there is a drain or using the fuel pump but careful you do not let the pump run dry as it will burn out.

2. I remove the bracket that holds the spare tyre.

3. I remove the fuel hoses and detach the filler hoses. The filler caps thread off from big rings under the deck and that gives you the room to lift them off.

4. I jack the car up...high, enough the clear the tank height.

5. I remove the nuts off the three nuts and screws that bolt through the rank side flanges and through the boards.

6. I remove the two metal straps holding the wood plank floor together.

7. Now you have the wood frame above the tank. This must be moved upwards to allow you to raise the tank sufficiently to slide the floor boards out. The frame has two screws per side. Takes out the lowers rearward ones. and loosen the upper frontwards ones. Then pivot the frame upward and tie it in pace.

8. Now slide cords under and hoist it up and tie it to the ceiling or something.

9. Now slide the floor boards out in a sequence dictated by the small and large boards.

10. Now lower the tank to the floor and slide it out from under the car.
